THE FINAL PAPER WITH CASE STUDY FINDINGS HAS ALSO FORMED PART OF GDN WORKING PAPER SERIES (WP #78).GDN'S IXTH GLOBAL RESEARCH PROJECT (GRP) "VARIETIES OF GOVERNANCE: EFFECTIVE PUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERY". THE THREE-YEAR RESEARCH PROJECT WAS GENEROUSLY FUNDED BY THE AUSTRALIAN AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT (AUSAID), DEPARTMENT FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT (DFID), UK, INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH CENTRE (IDRC), INTER-AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK (IDB), OPEN SOCIETY INSTITUTE (OSD, THE FRENCH MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AND EUROPEAN AFFAIRS, THE PARTNERSHIP FOR AFRICAN SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE RESEARCH (P ASGR) AND THE WORLD BANK. THIS PROJECT EXPLORED THE ROLE OF FORMAL AND INFORMAL INSTITUTIONS, AT BOTH COUNTRY AND SECTOR LEVEL, IN THE EFFECTIVENESS (OR LACK) OF PUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERY IN THE AREAS OF BASIC EDUCATION, WATER SUPPLY AND TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE (ROADS). IT PROVIDED FUNDING AND MENTOR SUPPORT TO 16 MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH TEAMS OF 30 COUNTRIES AND PRODUCED RESEARCH REPORTS ON THE EFFECTS OF GOVERNANCE MECHANISMS ON SERVICE DELIVERY THROUGH A POLITICAL ECONOMY LENS. THE RESEARCH REPORTS GENERATED FROM THE PROJECT AREA AVAILABLE ON PROJECT WEBPAGE WWW.GDN.INT\GOV, PUBLIC DISSEMINATION. THE CAPACITY BUILDING, RESEARCH AND REGIONAL/COUNTRY DISSEMINATION PHASE OF THE PROJECT HAS COME TO AN END. A GLOBAL DISSEMINATION EFFORT THAT WILL SHOWCASE THE BEST EXAMPLES OF RESEARCH AND LEARNING FROM THE PROJECT IS UNDERWAY IN THE FORM OF AN EDITED BOOK TO BE PUBLISHED BY A GLOBALLY NOTABLE PUBLISHER.STRENGTHENING INSTITUTIONS TO IMPROVE PUBLIC EXPENDITURE ACCOUNTABILITY GRP: THE DFID-FUNDED (APPROX. GBP 5 MILLION) "STRENGTHENING INSTITUTIONS TO IMPROVE PUBLIC EXPENDITURE ACCOUNTABILITY" PROJECT AIMED TO STRENGTHEN THE CAPACITY OF THE 14 PARTICIPATING POLICY RESEARCH ORGANIZATIONS (SPREAD ACROSS AFRICA, ASIA AND LATIN AMERICA) OVER A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD TO MONITOR AND ANALYSE PUBLIC EXPENDITURE CHOICES, PROCESSES AND IMPACTS AND TO ENGAGE CONSTRUCTIVELY WITH POLICY OFFICIALS TO RECOMMEND IMPROVEMENTS. GRP'S ULTIMATE GOAL WAS MORE CAPABLE, ACCOUNTABLE, AND RESPONSIVE GOVERNMENTS IN THE COUNTRIES WHERE THE PROJECT OPERATED. THE PROJECT CONDUCTED RIGOROUS ANALYSIS OF PUBLIC EXPENDITURES IN EDUCATION, HEALTH AND WATER AT THE DISTRICT, STATE AND NATIONAL LEVELS, AND ENGAGED IN CONCERTED OUTREACH EFFORTS INVOLVING POLICYMAKERS, MEDIA AND OTHER RELEVANT STAKEHOLDERS. CULMINATING IN OCTOBER 2013, THE GRP TRAINED OVER 100 RESEARCH TEAM MEMBERS (IN THE FORM OF REGIONAL AND GLOBAL TECHNICAL AND PEER-REVIEW WORKSHOPS, INDIVIDUAL AND TAILORED MENTORING FROM EXTERNAL TECHNICAL ADVISORS). THE FINAL EVALUATION OF THE PROJECT BROUGHT TO THE FORE PROMISING EVIDENCE OF ATTAINMENT AND SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS TOWARDS BUILDING THE CAPACITY OF THE PARTICIPATING O

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0GDNET: RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS FROM AND FOR THE GLOBAL SOUTH: GDNET IS A MULTI-DONOR KNOWLEDGE INITIATIVE, WHICH BRINGS TOGETHER AND COMMUNICATES POLICY-RELEVANT RESEARCH FROM THE GLOBAL SOUTH. IT HAS OVER 12,000 MEMBERS (RESEARCHERS FROM DEVELOPING AND TRANSITION COUNTRIES) TO WHOM IT PROVIDES ACCESS TO ONLINE JOURNALS, GREY LITERATURE AND OTHER RESEARCH DOCUMENTATION, DATA AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION ABOUT RESEARCH FUNDING. GDNET SUPPORTS SOUTHERN RESEARCHERS IN MAKING THEIR RESEARCH ACCESSIBLE AND AVAILABLE TO A GLOBAL AUDIENCE AND STRENGTHENS THEIR RESEARCH COMMUNICATION CAPACITY THROUGH TRAINING. IT AIMS TO BE AN INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED ORGANIZATION FOR SHARING KNOWLEDGE ON DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH TO INFORM POLICY DEBATE. GDNET IS A PARTNERSHIP WITH REGIONAL NETWORKS AND LEADING EXPERTS IN THE FIELD. DFID COMMITTED $3.52 MILLION TO THIS PHASE OF THE PROGRAM IN ADDITION TO $1.65 MILLION FOR PHASE 1 (2005 - 2009). DFID FUNDING REPRESENTED APPROXIMATELY 80% OF THE BUDGET FOR THIS PHASE, WHICH WAS ALSO FUNDED BY DGIS (THE NETHERLANDS) AND THE WORLD BANK. DGIS FUNDING CEASED IN 2012 AND WORLD BANK FUNDING ALSO CAME TO AN END THIS YEAR. THE PROJECT CAME TO AN END IN JUNE 2014.THE PROGRAM AIMED TO IMPACT RESEARCH AND POLICY AUDIENCES WHO WILL MAKE BETTER USE OF DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH FROM THE SOUTH. THE LONGER TERM OBJECTIVE OF THE PROGRAM WAS TO CONTRIBUTE TO ENSURE THAT BETTER POLICY FOR ACHIEVING POVERTY REDUCTION IS INFORMED BY BETTER RESEARCH. THE PROGRAM AIMED TO DELIVER ON FOUR RESULTS:(I) SOUTHERN RESEARCHERS ARE BETTER INFORMED BY CURRENT IDEAS AND KNOWLEDGE(II) RESEARCHERS ARE ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATE THEIR RESEARCH TO POLICY(III) KNOWLEDGE NETWORKING BETWEEN RESEARCHERS AND WITH POLICY ACTORS IS INCREASED(IV) LESSONS ABOUT KNOWLEDGE BROKERING BEST PRACTICE IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH ARE LEARNED AND COMMUNICATED OVERALL, THE GDNET PROGRAM HAS CONTRIBUTED TO MAKING SOUTHERN RESEARCH MORE VISIBLE AND ACCESSIBLE. GDNET'S NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENTS INCLUDE:- 10,000 MEMBERS, PREDOMINANTLY RESEARCHERS IN THE SOUTH- THE RESEARCH KNOWLEDGE BASE CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 22,000 DOCUMENTS AND ABSTRACTS, WHICH REPRESENTS A CONSIDERABLE REPOSITORY OF SOUTHERN RESEARCH. ABSTRACT WERE VIEWED OVER 709,000 TIMES DURING 2013- 223 RESEARCHERS (61 FEMALE, 162 MALE), 100% SOUTHERN, HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO COMMUNICATE THEIR RESEARCH.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc015TH ANNUAL GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE ACCRA (GHANA): GDN'S FLAGSHIP EVENT IS ITS THREE DAY ANNUAL GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE HELD IN DIFFERENT COUNTRIES EACH YEAR. IN JUNE 2014, THE 15TH EDITION HAD TAKEN PLACE IN ACCRA, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE AFRICAN CAPACITY BUILDING FOUNDATION, THE AFRICAN ECONOMIC RESEARCH CONSORTIUM, THE UNITED NATIONS ECONOMIC COMMISSION FOR AFRICA AND THE UNIVERSITY OF GHANA. OVER 430 PARTICIPANTS FROM ALMOST 70 COUNTRIES (75 PER CENT FROM DEVELOPING COUNTRIES) HAVE SHARED THEIR VIEWS ON THE MAJOR THEME OF 'STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATION IN AFRICA AND BEYOND', THROUGH 7 PLENARY SESSIONS, 22 PARALLEL SESSIONS, 3 KEYNOTE SPEECHES (SUCH AS DR. ELENI GABRE-MADHIN, DR. CELESTIN MONGA AND THE NIGERIA'S COORDINATING MINISTER FOR THE ECONOMY AND MINISTER OF FINANCE, DR. NGOZI OKONJO-IWEALA). FOR THE FIRST TIME, A COMPETITIVE CALL FOR PAPERS AND SESSIONS HAS BEEN LAUNCHED: 300 PAPER SUBMISSIONS HAVE BEEN REVIEWED BY 22 DISTINGUISHED MEMBERS OF THE SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE. A MAJOR HIGHLIGHT OF THE GDN ANNUAL GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE IS A SPECIAL FOCUS ON YOUNG RESEARCHERS FROM DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, IN ORDER TO IMPROVE THEIR RESEARCH CAPACITY, ACCORDINGLY TO THE CORE MISSION OF GDN. THE CONFERENCE INCLUDED, AS IN THE PAST, RESEARCH COMPETITION FOR YOUNG RESEARCHERS FROM DEVELOPING COUNTRIES ('AWARDS & MEDALS') AND, FOR THE FIRST TIME, AN 'ESSAY COMPETITION' FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS FROM THE AFRICAN CONTINENT. THE POSTERS OF STUDENTS WERE EXHIBITED DURING THE WHOLE CONFERENCE AND THEY RECEIVED TRAINING SEMINAR FOR RESEARCH PRESENTATION SKILLS. A LOT OF 'COMERS' WERE SET UP EACH DAY FOR FACILITATING NETWORKING BETWEEN PARTICIPANTS AND FOR DISSEMINATION OF RESEARCH OUTPUTS.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc1GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT AWARDS COMPETITION: THE ANNUAL GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT AWARDS COMPETITION RECOGNIZES EARLY-CAREER RESEARCHERS AND INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS FROM DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. EACH YEAR, RESEARCHERS AND DEVELOPMENT PRACTITIONERS APPLY FOR THREE COMPETITION CATEGORIES - RESEARCH PROPOSALS, COMPLETED RESEARCH PAPERS AND FOR SCALING UP DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS. THE AWARDS PROVIDE FINANCIAL GRANTS TO HIGH-QUALITY RESEARCH PROPOSALS AND INNOVATIVE PROJECTS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. THE RESEARCHERS ARE ALSO PROVIDED MENTORING FOR THE PERIOD OF THE GRANT. THE FIRST PRIZE WINNER OF THE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT AWARD IS ALSO ELIGIBLE TO APPLY FOR A HIGHER AWARD OF UP TO USD 200,000.KOICA DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH AWARD 2014 - GDN HAS ALSO COORDINATED AND ADMINISTERED THE KOICA DEVELOPMENT RESEARCH AWARD FOR COMPLETED RESEARCH PAPERS BY RESEARCHERS FROM LOWER MIDDLE INCOME COUNTRIES (EXCEPT INDIA) AND LOW INCOME COUNTRIES, ON THE BROAD THEME OF THE "RELEVANCE OF KOREA'S DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCE FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES". THE WIDE DISSEMINATION OF THE INFORMATION ON THE COMPETITION AND THE REVIEW AND SELECTION PROCESS HAS TAKEN PLACE. GDN NEXT HORIZONS ESSAY CONTEST 2014 - GDN IS MANAGING AND COORDINATING AN ESSAY CONTEST - 'NEW HORIZONS'. THIS INCLUDES DISSEMINATION OF THE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONTEST WORLDWIDE AND LAUNCH OF THE ONLINE PLATFORM FOR INTAKE OF SUBMISSIONS. GDN IS ALSO MANAGING THE REVIEW AND SELECTION PROCESS OF THE WINNERS.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc2GLOBAL RESEARCH COMPETITIONS (GRC): THE SECOND PHASE OF THE GRCBP CONSISTS IN THE GLOBAL RESEARCH COMPETITIONS (GRC), WHICH WAS LAUNCHED AS A PILOT ROUND IN 2012 WITH A FOCUS ON THREE BROAD RESEARCH THEMES; EDUCATION AND GENDER, FOOD SECURITY, POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATIONS. THE SIX MULTI-DISCIPLINARY AND CROSS-COUNTRY STUDIES FUNDED THROUGH THE PILOT ARE PROGRESSING WELL, AND THE TEAMS HAVE HAD MEETINGS WITH THEIR MENTORS AND SEVERAL ROUNDS OF FEEDBACK ON THEIR WORK IN PROGRESS. THE SECOND ROUND OF GRC HAD BEEN LAUNCHED IN AUGUST 2013. THE CENTRAL IDEA OF THIS COMPETITION IS TO SUPPORT RESEARCH WORK UNDERTAKEN BY MULTI-REGIONAL TEAMS (AS OPPOSED TO THE REGIONAL RESEARCH COMPETITIONS, OR RRCS, WHICH SUPPORT INDIVIDUAL RESEARCHERS OR COUNTRY TEAMS IN THE VARIOUS DEVELOPMENT REGIONS). THE THEMES FOR 2013 INCLUDE - A) INCLUSIVE AND SUSTAINABLE GROWTH B) FOOD SECURITY, AND C) POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL TRANSFORMATIONS. EACH WINNING TEAM WILL BE PAIRED WITH WORLD-CLASS MENTORS AND WILL RECEIVE GRANTS OF UP TO US$ 32,000 FOR RESEARCH PROJECTS OF UP TO 18 MONTHS.THE COMPETITION FOCUSES ON DIVERSE RESEARCH THEMES WHICH ORIGINATE FROM THE POLICY RESEARCH PRIORITY AREAS DEFINED BY GDN'S GLOBAL RESEARCH AGENDA AND ARE IN-LINE WITH ITS FUTURE GRP. THE NATURE OF THE RESEARCH THEMES IS SUCH THAT THEY ENCOURAGE COLLABORATION AMONGST RESEARCHERS AND ARE OF RELEVANCE TO MORE THAN ONE REGION. PILOTED IN 2012, THE COMPETITION FOCUSED ON THE BROAD RESEARCH THEMES OF 1) EDUCATION AND GENDER 2) FOOD SECURITY AND 3) POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL TRANSFORMATIONS. IN THIS ROUND, SIX MULTI-DISCIPLINARY AND CROSS-COUNTRY STUDIES WERE FUNDED AND COMPLETED. THE COMPETITION WAS FULLY LAUNCHED IN 2013, AND FOCUSED ON THE RESEARCH THEMES OF 1) INCLUSIVE AND SUSTAINABLE GROWTH 2) FOOD SECURITY AND 3) POLITICAL, ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL TRANSFORMATIONS.
