Abstract
This report describes the range of IDRC supported activities in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. It assesses the evolution of program delivery, and highlights how it has adapted to external and internal factors. Current regional development challenges are identifieds: the lack of research visions and strategies; weak research performance and management; financial instabilities, and the absence of an independent and liberal research environment. The report proposes exploration of new paths such as “region-inspired development;” gender equity; and “enabling policy environment for the private sector”.
