The Global Development Network : addressing challenges of globalization - an independent evaluation of the World Bank's approach to global programs
Sarna, Naveen
The Global Development Network's (GDN) stated objectives are to: 1) support multidisciplinary research in social sciences; 2) promote the generation of local knowledge in developing and transition countries; 3) produce policy relevant knowledge on a global scale; 4) build research capacity to advance development and alleviate poverty; 5) facilitate knowledge sharing among researchers and policymakers; and 6) disseminate development knowledge to the public and policymakers. GDN has supported activities on two fronts: knowledge generation and knowledge sharing. To develop new knowledge, it has established Regional Research Competitions, a program of small research grants administered by the Regional Network Partners. GDN's Global Research Projects engage research teams to address key development challenges common across regions on a comparative, cross-country basis.
