Canada has been at the forefront of efforts to promote locally-led policy research in the Global South since the 1980s. In addition to PEP, @IDRC_CRDI helped launch several major Southern-led research institutions.
👉🏽As part of #PEPconf2022, we celebrated 20 years of #PEP.
💡 As resources for development research are finite, donors must dedicate funding to create an environment supporting locally-generated research. Watch #PEPconf2022 to hear more from our panel of international experts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-_BmNO75bQ #IncludeLocalResearchers
💡 Challenges the world faces today render the standard economic research models less important & open the door for innovative thinking from local researchers. Read more conclusions from #PEPconf2022: https://t.co/M4hWfi0Svb #IncludeLocalResearchers #ResearchforBetterPolicies
💡 Researchers from the Global South have very little representation & voice in shaping international and national development policy. Watch our #PEPconf2022 panel of international experts explore this critical issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-_BmNO75bQ #IncludeLocalResearchers
💡 PEP can build on its achievements to help Southern researchers take the lead in development policy & research debates where the Global North is still overrepresented. Read more conclusions from #PEPconf2022: https://t.co/M4hWfi0Svb #IncludeLocalResearchers #LocalResearch
Don't worry if you missed anything from today's Symposium on PEP's 20 years of promoting Southern-driven development.

Mustapha on mobilizing funding in the Global South: "I think the possibilities of financing from the South from within the South should become much more important. I think we should look very much for partnerships between North and South in funding research. #PEPconf2022
the research questions have already been developed, so that really makes it very difficult for researchers from the global South to take an active role and shift the agenda." #PEPconf2022
#PEPconf2022 Christopher Chibwana On funding inequities: "by the time the partners are brought into decision making, the priority areas for research are already determined, the funds already divided...
"...the issues that we face now are much bigger, much more challenging and I think researchers in Southern countries need to move forward and take the stage." - Mustapha K. Nabli – Former Chair of the PEP Board of Directors #PEPconf2022
"[Researchers] are studying our problems, developing countries problems, & most of them that participate are from Northern countries that sometimes don't have knowledge that are very important to solve problems and influence policy. - Ana Lucia Kassouf (@KassoufAna) #PEPconf2022
"...in top development journals, looking at the website [my colleague] found of the 439 editors only 17% were from Southern countries..." - Ana Lucia Kassouf (@KassoufAna) #PEPconf2022
