External evaluation of the Science Granting Councils Initiative in sub-Saharan Africa : final report - volume 1
After seven years of implementation, IDRC commissioned an external evaluation (EE) to assess the extent to which the Initiative is achieving its strategic objectives. The evaluation assesses the achievements, the role of the SGCI in actual and perceived changes, and how results have been achieved, as well as key lessons learned. The evaluation recommends actions for strengthening the overall performance of the Initiative over the next three years and certainly beyond. This final EE report is based on a thorough analysis of the literature and documentation made available to the consultants, interviews with the SGCI Initiative Management Team (IMT) and the SGCI monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) consultant, a workshop held in April 2022 with SGCI participating Councils and Collaborating Technical Agencies (CTAs), additional consultations with bilateral funding partners, the CTAs and all the Science Granting Councils (SGCs), and a specific engagement for conducting case studies with six selected SGCs and their research communities and external stakeholders (ministries, other research partners) in Uganda, Malawi, Botswana, Rwanda, Burkina Faso and Senegal. All in all, 56 interviews were conducted

Gender disparities, career choices, and wage dynamics in stem occupations in Brazil
While science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are crucial to fostering human capital and innovation, women remain underrepresented in these fields, even though their involvement is essential to a country's productivity. This project was proposed to advance the understanding of gender differences in STEM fields in Brazil. It makes a novel contribution to understanding the causes and consequences of gender gaps by analyzing national longitudinal data on firms and employees in research institutions, government-owned enterprises, and private enterprises. It also fills a gap by providing a better understanding of what STEM is in Brazil
