Abstract
Management acknowledges the reviewers’ findings that contributions to knowledge from both programs are more evident at the local or regional level, and appreciate that the reviewers articulate the trade-offs between generating knowledge, and policy influence that is locally-grounded but also has global relevance and impact. Management is encouraged that critical masses of findings are emerging on a number of themes, which in turn are generating greater visibility; both reviews address the question of value-for-money, and acknowledge that this presents a significant challenge given the absence of international benchmarks, as well as the varied nature of outcomes sought by the programs.
