To support the participation of researchers in developing and emerging countries, INASP undertakes activities to support the access, use, publication and dissemination of research findings.
INASP’s support includes enabling access to online research information in cooperation with institutional librarians, workshops to develop skills in searching and managing research information, support for networks and informal communication, and activities to promote publishing and dissemination of research results.
