Abstract

This research and policy influencing program, called Rural Territorial Dynamics (RTD) addresses rural development, integrating and synthesizing policy, practice and intellectual debate at a regional level in a way that links and cuts across different disciplines. This organizational assessment identifies contributions of IDRC´s Core Support for Rural Development Research to Rimisp, Latin America Centre for Rural Development, from 2007 to 2011. Findings are promising: IDRC´s funding modality has helped Rimisp to strengthen its intended positioning as a world-class rural development knowledge center that serves as an effective platform for the articulation of multiple partners to revitalize Latin American rural societies.
