WNCB conducted research about how to stimulate evidence-based working within the WNCB alliance. The research project was conducted by Wageningen University and led by Margit van Wessel, B. Rajeshwari and Siri Lijfering. Based on data collection among WNCB partners in India, Jordan and Uganda the researchers developed a theoretical framework, the research eco-system, to understand the dynamics at play that stimulate or hinder research. To help ensure the WNCB alliance that its research projects are based on local needs and realities, they developed key principles and conversation starters. With many development organisations struggling with their efforts how to shift the power, the full guide and infographic can provide a starting point for advancing research through localization.
