UKCDR’s Strategy for the period of 2022 – 2025 leans on three pillars:

• Mapping, analysis and foresight,
• Convening for joint action,
• Sharing information and best practice.

These pillars all feed into our overarching ambition to use our expertise and collective voice, in order to:

• identify where UK research for development has been effective and shown value for money,
• identify the overall impact of the UK’s investment in research for development,
  bridge the gap between “what” is funded and “how” it is delivered,
• increase our impact by working with a range of influential funding bodies and foster relationships with core users: the academic research community (UK and international) and the international development community,
• foster dialogue, draw on complementary skills, initiate discussions and ensure representation and understanding of our international stakeholders’ needs and priorities to jointly address global challenges.
