Presentation
The general purpose of the study is to provide elements for the design of an analytical framework to monitor and measure the impact of Think Tanks in developing countries by integrating the different visions, variables and contexts existing in the literature and identified based on three case studies (GRADE, a Think Tank of Africa and another one of Asia). It will also seek to show the importance and difficulties of the measurement in the different impact spheres, namely: academic contribution, influence in policies, and enrichment of the debate, among others.
