Grounding post-2015 frameworks in bottom-up action learning
The post-2015 development framework’s success will ultimately depend on how effectively it can be applied across wide-ranging social, economic and political contexts. Yet the research informing the post-2015 agenda gives little attention to structured ‘ground level’ processes of learning on how to achieve sustainable development outcomes based on past experience and current contexts and capacities.
The Independent Research Forum on a Post-2015 Sustainable Development Agenda (IRF2015) offers a preliminary agenda to fill this research gap. By employing participatory ‘action learning’ approaches, the proposed research should also help develop effective national and regional strategies aligned to the post-2015 development framework.
