Case studies of intermediary influence
In 2009, six I-K-Mediary members in Bangladesh, France, India, Nigeria, Philippines, Tanzania and South Africa generated 20 case studies exploring how information is used in development interventions. See Intermediary Impact: Case studies of intermediary influence (PDF) for a summary of this work.
A case study format for intermediary impact (doc) was developed to enable I-K-Mediary members to illustrate and compare their contribution as intermediaries to policy and practice. You can also view the interview questions and interviewing tips (Word) used for the project.
