With this framework the different partnership arrangements were analysed for their merits for leveraging efficiency (research capacity), enhancing CIFOR’s mission and impact, enhancing capacity building in partners. The review was built around facilitated self-assessments of partnerships by CIFOR staff and partners in a systemic way, external perspectives and in-depth analysis of outcomes with teams. The review came out with a range of recommendations to enhance partnerships and a common framework for partnership management. |
