The Global Development Research Center (GDRC)
Description edit
The Global Development Research Center is an independent nonprofit think tank that carries out initiatives in the spheres of environment, urban, community, economy and information, and at scales that are effective.
The GDRC is an attempt to consolidate disparate issues, themes and topics into one umbrella to highlight their interconnectedness and interdisciplinary nature. With the focus being more on knowledge transfer and information dissemination, GDRC focuses on the micro scale - at the level of the man-on-the-street, where most of the everyday decisions are taken.
It functions as an information repository (in terms of gathering, collating, packaging and disseminating information); as a research and training center (in terms of organizing training sessions, and seminars and conferences) and as a educational center (knowledge developed from the activities of the center will be fed back into academic programmes and capacity building exercises. In attempting to develop the programmes of GDRC, its usefulness to the user with respect to education, research and practice are used as defining parameters. The interlinkages of needs and uses is highlighted, where practitioners can draw lessons from the research being done or educationists can tailor their courses with the work that practitioners carry out.
