Overview of international health research projects

Here is an overview of international health research and knowledge mangagement projects in the South that are all based on North-South collaboration, connected to Danish institutions. Some have received full or partial funding from Danida, others are funded by other sources. 

This is a non-comprehensive list. Please contact the Network secretariat if you would like to have your project included.

If you wish to download a list of research projects that have been supported by 'FFU', Danida since 2004 you can click here (in Danish). Please note that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has decided to outsource the administration of the support to development research to Danida Fellowship Centre as of July 1, 2008.
