Building on the significant outcomes and lessons drawn from the PAGE II initiative, the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) of Canada awarded PEP additional funding to extend and deepen the program. This new round of support (PAGE II-Round 3) will see 14 mixed government-research teams conduct gender-sensitive, policy-oriented research projects in Africa (particularly West Africa). The research projects relate to the themes of:
In line with PEP’s core mission, the PAGE II-Round 3 program includes an important “capacity building” component. Through this initiative, 14 multidisciplinary teams will benefit from the unique and manifold PEP "Grant Plus" research support program as they conduct high quality, gender-sensitive and policy-engaged research projects. The teams will use cutting-edge methodologies (macro-micro development policy modelling and microeconomic non-experimental analysis) to inform relevant development policy decisions in their home countries.
All projects supported under the PAGE II-Round 3 program are based in Africa with priority given to researchers from and based in low-income economies (LICs), fragile and/or conflict states (LFCs). Over 50% of the projects supported by PEP through the PAGE II-Round 3 program are led by teams from these countries. This program also has a focus on West Africa, with more than 60% of the projects based in the region.
As with the previous PAGE II rounds, PEP selected the teams to be supported through an open and competitive call for proposals, which was launched in 2019.
After a thorough review process, PEP invited 20 teams with shortlisted projects to present their proposals to an audience of peers and PEP-affiliated international experts for review and discussion at the 2019 PEP Special General Meeting.
During the meeting, the team members also received three days of intensive training. Government-affiliated team members focused on best practices for using evidence in policymaking while researchers also received gender analysis training.
Following the conference, PEP awarded 14 teams(seven using macro-micro policy modelling, and seven using microeconomic non-experimental analysis – listed below) full support under the PAGE-II Round 3 program.
Between September and November 2019, members of the 14 selected teams will complete distance (online) training courses in the specific research methods/tools to be applied in their project.
In the course of PAGE II-Rounds 1 and 2, PEP supported 45 projects on policy analysis on growth and employment under five themes. Many exciting findings are emerging from this analysis, as well as from related PAGE I research. While these findings are promising, particularly in terms of pointing to potential policy solutions, research is now needed to support the policy processes by analysing actual policy solutions. PEP experts thus identified two broad PAGE II themes—from which the findings are the most promising—for further development under PAGE II-Round 3:
Within these themes, PAGE II-Round 3 funding is for research to support policy processes through gender-sensitive analysis of actual policy solutions. Selected projects aim to address key knowledge gaps and policy needs in terms of the evidence base.
For the first time, selected projects will produce two distinct papers: a research/working paper, and a policy paper. The first detailing the process and results of the scientific research work, and the latter positioning the issues and findings within the country’s broader policy context and strategies.
Building on more than 16 years of experience and the knowledge of a large pool of world-renowned experts in the field, PEP offers unique expertise in the application of cutting-edge methodologies and analytical techniques in economics and development research within the specific context of developing countries.
The PEP research support program spans four distinct analytical approaches, each focused on a different set of methodologies and coordinated by teams of international experts. Experts in the specific methodologies are assigned as mentors to the project teams upon their selection.
