Abstract
Acacia has been effective in fostering on-going, robust policy dialogue, catalyzing thriving regional research networks, increasing research capacity in ICT4D and stimulating social and technical innovation in ICTs. On the other hand, only four research networks considered their outcomes contribute to meaningful gender analysis or changing gender relations. This evaluation was commissioned in order to evaluate the Acacia approach of networking. The Acacia III prospectus clearly identifies the modality of forming research development networks across Africa to achieve its stated objectives. The evaluation is designed for the IDRC Evaluation Unit according to internationally recognized standards.
