| Summary: | This is the Global Program Review (GPR)
of the Global Development Network (GDN). Established in 1999
as a global partnership program with a secretariat located
in the World Bank, it was spun off as an independent
not-for-profit organization based in Washington, DC, in 2001
and then relocated to New Delhi, India, as an international
organization in 2004. GDN's overarching goal has been
to promote the generation, sharing, and application to
policy of multidisciplinary knowledge for the purpose of
development. To accomplish this, GDN has focused on three
core program objectives: (1) generating high-quality,
policy-relevant research in developing and transition
countries; (2) building research and policy outreach
capacity among researchers in those countries to improve the
quality and expand the policy influence of their work on a
national and international level; and (3) promoting greater
linkages between researchers and the policy process to
foster effective, evidence-based policy-making. |
