COVID CIRCLE and the Covid Collective came together virtually to ask a vital question: How has COVID19 shaped the engagement of research with policy and practice in Low- and Middle-Income Countries?
This event will explore new understandings of research engagement during the pandemic in LMIC settings. This will have implications for the funding of research and research engagement strategies during the current crisis, and the recovery phase and for building future heath emergency resilience.
On April 27 2022, members of UKCDR’s COVID CIRCLE Researcher Community (CCRC) came together with UK funders to discuss the impact of social sciences research on the COVID-19 pandemic response. The webinar was chaired by Dr Nina Gobat, lead of the WHO COVID-19 Social Science Technical Working Group.
