Human-led infrastructure for people turning lived experience into solutions.
86400 Impact Studio helps communities and partners build practical, reusable ways to move from a clearly defined problem to a tested solution and locally led action.
Why the studio exists
Important problems are often understood first by the people living with them. Yet those people may lack accessible ways to frame the problem, test a response, find collaborators and carry useful work forward. 86400 exists to help make that journey more practical and more reusable.
Mission
To support young people and organisations turn bold ideas into practical action that improves lives, strengthens communities and creates measurable social value.
Vision
An African continent where every community can access the imagination, tools, people and intelligent support needed to build a future through their own lens.
What we are not
We are not a traditional consultancy that does every project on behalf of others. We are not a custom AI developer by default. We are not limited to one issue.
Our commitments
- Dignity
- Respect people’s knowledge, agency, privacy and ownership.
- Opportunity
- Make routes to participation and action clearer.
- Belonging
- Build with relationships and local context.
- Imagination

- Agency
- Support people to decide, build, test and lead.
Awaiting content approval
These commitments are proposed from the studio’s operating model and require internal approval as formal public values.
How we work
We use AI to assist with research options, drafts, workflows, analysis and learning. People remain responsible for deciding what is true, ethical, relevant and worth doing. Human facilitation and relationships matter where trust, safeguarding or context requires them.
