Project Description
Under the GEG/IRMA Consoritum, Lezlie designed and led the research leading to ELRHA’s ‘Global Prioritisation Exercise for Research and Innovation’ (Stage 1: 1—08/2017). In the compendium of research and innovation linked to humanitarian action, 694 outputs were catalogued representing the investment of 825 organisations funded by 219 donors. A primary dataset was developed through a rigorous literature review (RLR), which systematically selected and examined 541 documents compiled by rule-based searches of scholastic and grey literature. GPE Phase One has charted new territory in cataloguing humanitarian action and establishes an exciting baseline of opportunities for meaningful research and innovation in the humanitarian sphere.
