INASP celebrated its 20th anniversary with a symposium on the 20th of June, 2012.

The speakers' presentations are now available online.

The symposium explored the state of the art of research communication and research uptake for development as they exist today, how the field might develop in the future and how the practice in the light of robust research evidence can improve. Through presentations and participatory discussions participants critically examined some commonly held ‘truths’ about research communication.

Partcipants consisted of practitioners and researchers from developing countries, speakers and participants from funding agencies and governments with programmes in this area, as well as key executives from the publishing, information, and library worlds.
