This strategy was developed as the world readjusts to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. There is an increasing acknowledgement that global health must respond to ongoing poly-crises if we are to reach universal health coverage and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. COVID-19 has demonstrated the importance of the rapid uptake and use of quality health research and the resilience of national health systems.

 

TDR will continue to support activities that focus on research that improves our understanding of how health interventions are implemented in real-life situations. High-quality research evidence is essential to make sure that new interventions can be introduced effectively and safely, and proven interventions can be scaled up and deployed to their full potential.

 

Our three closely interconnected strategic approaches – Research support, Research training for capacity strengthening, and – feed into a theory of change that carries their outputs towards health impact, as illustrated below.
