Book excerpt: This technical brief draws on the findings of the study to offer insights into what factors make it more or less likely that research will feed into policy and practice in Ghana. It also provides an up-to-date snapshot of the range of actors involved in conducting research in the country as well as their institutional profile. This learning aims to inform efforts by national governments, as well as funders, to develop and strengthen existing institutions towards enhanced uptake of research. The research in this technical brief is part of a multi-country study commissioned by the Alliance for Health Policy and Systems Research to understand the evidence-to-policy process around health decisions in Ghana, Ethiopia and Mozambique.
