The Africa Research and Impact Network (ARIN) is an International Think Tank designed as a network of over 200 researchers and policymakers, with National Focal Points across 36 African countries aimed at; i) consolidating evidence from various African contexts and leveraging these to support policies and capacity building, and ii) promoting research excellence and sharing best research and impact practices.
ARIN has vast experience in generating and consolidating evidence on what works or not, focusing on the key strategic sectors or themes within the global research and development agenda. ARIN provides a unique convening platform for the science-policy interface in Africa, building on research evidence. It recognizes that Africa is home to multiple researchers, innovation, and best policy practices, but these remain poorly shared and utilized to inform impactful Research and Development Agenda.
ARIN, therefore, provides a peer review platform where best research and impact practices from different African contexts are shared, profiled, and leveraged to inform transformative policy action
