Abstract

The evaluation seeks to improve the Peace, Conflict and Development Program (PCD) and other IDRC programming approaches in contexts of active conflict. It identifies factors that facilitate or hinder the research process for PCD-supported projects in countries and regions affected by violent conflict, and the advantages and disadvantages of PCD programming modalities in achieving PCD objectives in those conflict settings. For more than three decades, the IDRC has provided significant support for research activities led by universities, research institutes, government departments and nongovernmental organizations (NGO) in East Africa.
