Abstract

The Think Tank Initiative (TTI) program made possible the development of an MPhil/PhD program at Makerere Institute of Social Research (Kampala, Uganda) which radically expanded research capacity and publication output, as measured by books, publications in peer-reviewed journals, Working Papers, Policy Briefs, articles in newspapers both local and international, and the launch of a new journal. The library has doubled in capacity and a publication and communication unit has been expanded. The think tank developed into a research and policy unit with a widespread reach and growing influence in the shaping of public policy.
