Thanks to all researchers funded by @IDRC_CRDI who generated the insights that gave us the opportunity to tell the story of Research Quality +. A tool available for the global science community and published today in @nature. nature.com/articles/d4158…
Really important from @_JeanLebel @IDRC_CRDI: argues "Southern only research is high quality" & offers better ways of assessing it, which start from rigour & quality but also recognise context, relevance, engagement with stakeholders, capacity strengthening. @INASPinfo x.com/NatureNews/sta…
The dominant types of research evaluation take a narrow view of what constitutes quality - often undervaluing unique solutions to unique problems. go.nature.com/2KL65fL
