RECOUP Dissemination Conference in Islamabad

Mahbub-ul-Haq Human Development Centre (MHHDC) is a policy research institute based in Pakistan and as a member of RECOUP – a DFID-funded research programme consortium – is studying the role of education in breaking intergenerational cycles of deprivation.  One of RECOUPs central objectives, in addition to undertaking innovative research techniques combining qualitative and quantitative research, is to communicate the research, its findings, and significance, to policy makers, the research community, government functionaries, and other stakeholders in the development sector. Given the range of potential audience, the task requires a dissemination/communication strategy that targets policy makers and implementers at the federal, provincial, and local level. It also requires a range of dissemination tools ranging from working papers presented at seminars, and newspaper articles to one-to-one presentations with officials at the different levels of government and workshops involving international and national policy agencies.
