Making the Dividend Count Bridging Research and Africa’s Policy Processes
31 May 2018

Despite this high-level expression of commitment, policy-makers still need to do more to integrate demographic dividend research into their country’s policy-making processes. Drawing on the experiences of expert engagements with policy-makers in Uganda, Malawi, and Kenya this paper outlines how experts have effectively communicated demographic dividend research to government officials, who in turn, incorporated these results into policies. While these interactions are still a work in progress, they provide lessons on how experts can more effectively communicate research with policy-makers.
