Research (Academia & Think Tanks)

Table 4

After many years locked away in the ivory tower, Jon Forney entered
the real world in 2014 after earning a PhD in Political Science from
the University of Virginia. As a part of earning his doctorate, Jon spent
a year in Sierra Leone traveling around the country and speaking with
former members of civil militias who had taken up arms during the
war to defend their communities. All told, he spoke with over 200
former militia members and formulated a theory about why some
militia factions chose to defend civilians while other factions largely
preyed upon the very people whom they were sworn to protect.

After graduating, Jon was hired as a survey methodologist for Forcier Consulting in South Sudan
where he was responsible for developing customized research designs as well as qualitative and
quantitative data collection tools, tailored to the monitoring and evaluation of aid programs. He
rapidly gained experience evaluating a wide range of programs across multiple sectors, including
education, health and sanitation, market dynamics, and conflict resolution. Due to a dearth of
salsa-dancing venues in South Sudan, Jon relocated to Washington, D.C. toward the end of 2015,
where he continues to work for Forcier.

Jon now serves as the Director of Research Design for Forcier Consulting and is responsible for
ensuring the quality of all of Forcier’s research products, from sample and questionnaire designs,
to analytical reports. Jon’s favorite part of his new role involves managing and mentoring a
small, but growing, technical team of survey methodologists and data nerds spread across six
countries. In his free time, Jon teaches in the International Development Studies program at
GWU, dances salsa, and lifts heavy things.
