Who we are
We are a coalition consisting of individuals, groups and institutions that aims to strengthen coordination among key stakeholders to build on and support the evidence base to better transition research into action. Our focus is to support multi-sectoral policy making and the scaling up of sustainable, evidence based programmes.
