The Research for Development Impact (RDI) Network leads, stimulates and supports:
- Effective, ethical development research practice
- Cross-sector partnerships and linkages
- Uptake and use of evidence in policy and practice
As practitioners, researchers and evaluators working in international development, we believe overcoming poverty and injustice requires effective partnerships that link quality research, policy and practice.
Collaboration between Australian universities and practitioners in government, NGOs and the private sector is central to our goal of promoting quality research with impact in international development. Facilitating the sharing of knowledge and information and providing access to expertise are what we do best.
Our community of practice is open to individuals and organisations engaged in international development and includes researchers, practitioners, students, evaluators, advisors, consultants, and specialists from the public and private sector.
In 2023, the RDI Network was established as an independent Australian charity.
