Feedback from members
"I have learned a lot, fostered collaboration...and found fellows who work in the same role and face similar challenges as an intermediary. I think this network is so very important, quite unique in its focus and I hope it will further flourish and extend”.
“Four years ago, I was a bit non-plussed about what I was doing as an intermediary and what our group was supposed to be really contributing, but over the years, I realized that my understanding of the potent role that we play has been honed by the continuous sharing and exchange of knowledge and experiences among peers and colleagues. And it has emboldened me to explore new things and experiment with new matrices of relations in the knowledge-policy sphere that I work with in my own setting which could hopefully have a more meaningful impact”.

Bi-lateral collaborations are also starting to emerge as a result of Network. For example, D.Net in Bangladesh will be translating CSE India’s “Down to Earth” science and environment magazine content into local languages and distributing this to local villages. IDS will also be working with Practical Action, Bangladesh and the International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie), India, to undertake research to explore the impact of intermediary work on policy processes in Bangladesh and the impact of different types of research communication approaches.
