Is the RIU programme only applicable to actors from the UK?
A. The RIU programme is not only open to actors from the UK. We welcome proposals from a global audience that benefit the target 6 countries in South / South East Asia and are interested to know what new ideas can be introduced that benefit the research knowledge generated previously. Therefore our starting point is the research that was carried out by DFID funded projects, and as such it is this research that we are looking to build upon. The DFID research programmes generated technologies, policies and processes which can be found on the RIU database which is hosted by the following site. http://www.stepsystemsdata.co.uk/cgibin/RIU.isa/EXEC/0/0faxhwt0cb6k4a10k6kma1bfq67u.
