Greetings from the fifth EfD Annual Meeting that was just concluded in Arusha, Tanzania. We have had yet another amazing meeting with stimulating keynotes, exciting paper presentations and interesting proposal discussions. Particularly exciting was to see during the Policy Day how close the collaboration is between the EfD center in Tanzania and important policy processes. Our research officer also reported that since the start in 2007 the EfD initiative has produced 300 publications out of which 118 are peer reviewed publications. There is for sure more to come as we have now cleared 16 more projects for implementation in 2012. Below you find the output during the last month.
