Network Medicus Mundi Switzerland in Cooperation with FAIRMED, Swiss Red Cross, SolidarMed There is a strong call within the international health cooperation to transform evidence based research into policy and action. Implementation research is often driven by the scientific community. In this side event, the organisers want to turn this argument upside down: NGO want to strengthen applied research in their projects and programmes. They argue that embedding implementation research in their programmes will create applied knowledge and evidence for the scaling up successful NGO interventions.
To strengthen implementation research within NGO programmes, there is a need for building up research skills and capacities within the organisations and for training programmes for NGO staff both at Headquarter and field level. Moreover, it is a challenge for many NGOs to find the necessary financial means. Implementation research should be stronger supported by donors. The organisers would like to launch the idea of an exchange platform for implementation health research.
With a key note of John Reeder (Director, Special Programme for Research & Training in Tropical Diseases, World Health Organization, Geneva) and inputs of Jochen Ehmer (SolidarMed), Nicole Moran (Consultant), Ingrid Mason (FAIRMED), Thomas Schwarz (Medicus Mundi International), Susanna Hausmann (Agency for Swiss Development Cooperation), Kaspar Wyss (Swiss TPH) and Thomas Gass (Swiss Red Cross).
