Promoting locally-led research

Learn how we are fostering an embedded implementation science approach through our technical support across C/Can cities, and developing research capacity locally to ensure sustainable contribution to the global health community.

The findings from this research will be instrumental in refining the technical cooperation programme, ensuring that our support is tailored and effective for the specific needs of the cities we serve.
