Our Science Quality Platform provides guidance and support to ICRAF scientists and their partners. The platform was created to foster research excellence and high quality science delivery in our work. The Platform aims to capture and document approaches and best practices for bringing more transparency and discipline to the research process by fostering principles of reproducible research.
Our ability to effectively fulfil our mission and, in turn, make a significant contribution towards realizing our vision largely depends on the extent to which the new knowledge and innovations we co-generate with our national and global partners are appropriately used by others including policy makers, the private sector, NGOs, and farmers. ICRAF has put in place a dedicated platform for facilitating this to support, accelerate, and prove the effective and efficient translation of our research efforts into inclusive development outcomes and impacts at the project, programme, and strategic organizational levels.
As a research-for-development organization, we explicitly recognize that our ability to both generate and deliver evidence for development impact necessitates consolidated efforts on a number of fronts.
