Abstract

The IDRC supported the advancement of a cohort of four health research organizations in East Africa; the resource mobilization for research (RMR) project provided Inyathelo with the opportunity to work in East Africa in a sustained way. Inyathelo, the South African Institute for Advancement, encourages organizations to build relationships with key external constituencies, including the state, beneficiaries, media, their supporters and the communities in which they operate. A practitioner was assigned to coordinate site visits and learning engagements, and to perform the liaison role between Inyathelo and the IDRC, and as point person for the health research organizations.
