Abstract

In the spring of 2005, the Global Forum for Health Research, the Council on Health Research for Development (COHRED) and the UNICEF/ UNDP/World Bank/WHO Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) agreed to collaborate on a project to define practical ways in which health research capacity strengthening (RCS) can be systematically operationalized to improve the performance of national health research systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This publication is the result of those commissioned studies and the fruitful collaboration between three leading organizations, who are advocating and supporting research capacity strengthening efforts to improve the performance of national health systems.
