Development Policy Review Network

The Development Policy Review Network is a network of development experts and policymakers in the Netherlands and Belgium who aim to reduce the gap between science, policy and development practice. To that end the DPRN organises and supports processes aimed at creating informed debate and synergy between the various sectors.

Hivos is involved in two DPRN trajectories entitled Gender Mainstreaming and Value chains, inclusion & endogenous growth.

Value chain governance and endogenous growth

This two year process aims to improve the development and poverty reduction outcome of policy measures and development interventions in value chain governance. Activities include an academic and position paper write shop, set up of a digital library, policy review of intervention theories used by firms, NGOs and governments, and translation into intervention strategies through online discussion and an agenda-setting conference.

On track with gender

A 3-year process on gender mainstreaming that aims to improve policy and practice towards gender equality. Includes one thematic workshop based on five electronically discussed position papers; field exchange with leading gender research institutes and NGO partners in the South; and gender mainstreaming institutional assessment, making use of gender programming and policy laboratory tools.
