IDS has partnered with IDRC to provide 12 research projects, funded through their Clean Energy for Development: A Call to Action (“CEDCA”) initiative, with knowledge translation and communications support. Our practical support and services are designed to supplement the global research expertise of the cohort.
IDS will focus on identifying coherent bodies of knowledge on clean energy transition, MSMEs, women and youth that cut across the cohort, and support learning and innovation around planning impact pathways, positioning evidence for use and engagement. IDS’s role will focus on facilitating peer to peer learning, co-producing knowledge synthesis outputs and helping to identify and access relevant global and regional policy spaces. This is a highly collaborative process with IDRC and the CEDCA research teams.
