Read some of what INASP has been up to over the past year to put research and knowledge at the heart of development

INASP, the international development charity that runs AuthorAID, has just published its annual review for 2015-2016. The latest annual review includes the addition of the Ugandan parliament to the VakaYiko evidence-informed policy making Consortium; support for the development of gender-inclusive policies at the University of Dodoma in Tanzania; and local communications support to the Journals Online platforms and journals. It also reports on the development of a toolkit for training in evidence-informed policy making; mapping the research and knowledge systems in Somalia, South Sudan and Liberia; and an increasing focus on reaching disadvantaged researchers via our online courses.
