PERI Review 2001-2004 : Enhancing Access to Research Information in Developing Countries

During 1999/2000 we were asked by research partners and librarians from developing and emerging countries for assistance in information production, access and dissemination utilising information and communication technologies (ICTs). Out of this PERI was developed and has now been operational for three years.

A review has been undertaken to :

document and assess progress towards goals and objectives and so learn from the implementation and management of the programme;
establish appropriate data and indicators for future monitoring and evaluation;
help identify appropriate priorities and directions for the next phase of the programme; and
share information and learning with PERI stakeholders, funders and other interested organisations or individuals.

The results are presented in this report, and the recommendations will be prioritised in consultation with the programme stakeholders to prepare an action plan for maximising impact of the programme during its next phase.
