Conclusions

The system approach to policy making could be expanded broadly to include not only decision makers but also other stakeholders (LGU, community and other NGO).

Using a Policy model as a tool to understand how policy is made and how research can influence policy making.

From the case study to the policy brief

The case study helped me to understand the policy

models and the processes of policy making

Next, I will apply the lessons I learned from my case study

to develop a policy brief for HFMD control

Personal Introduction

Ms. Sara Maria Pereira Post Graduate Certificate in Eye Care at PEI, FSM, Suva (2008)B/Teaching/BA at The University of Newcastle, Australia (2005)

The Fred Hollows Foundation New Zealand - Timor-LesteCommunity Services Manager (2007-2010)Joined The Foundation 2 years after the approval of National Eye Health StrategyJacqueline Ramke was the Technical Adviser at that time and she is currently the Country Director for The Fred Hollows Foundation NZ in Timor-LesteMr. Duarte Ximenes was the Senior Officer in Policy & Planning Department in the Ministry of Health, Timor-Leste

Research Informing Timor-Leste National Eye Health Strategy (NEHS)

Key Learning Points:

1. Using the 5 Questions Framework to reflect on the process of developing the National Eye Health Strategy.

2. Using policy models as tools for analyzing & understanding the policy system and how policy is made in general.

3. Using the Stages Model in particular has helped me to understand the process of how research influences policy.

• No available data on eye health

• No policy or strategy for eye health

Overall Outcomes

The Eye Health Survey has provided the evidence to supportthe development of the National Eye Health Strategy.

As a result, priorities for the eye health program, and key actions, have been identified and are being implemented.

I am Ajaya Dixit

A civil and water resources engineer.

University lecturer from 1978-1989.

Founder editor of Interdisciplinary journal Water Nepal (1986).

I chair three Non Governmental Organisations

Nepal Water Conservation Foundation: research, capacity building and dissemination.

Nepal Water for Health (NEWAH): provide drinking water and sanitation services (served 1 about million Nepali till 2009).

Rural Self Reliance Development Centre (RSDC): Works with 46,000 marginalised rural households.

Current research

Climate change adaptation: adaptive policy, institutional innovations and education.

Allowed systematically thinking about case studies and in developing policy briefs

Enabled exploring research policy linkages in past policy activities.

Reflection helps better approach to future policy activities.

Page 69: Bridging the Research-Policy Divide in Public Health

In 1995 the Bank withdrew support to the project

The project was pursued since 1985, publicly challenged after 1990 when Nepal began multi party democracy open political

era

I used Advocacy Coalition Model to reflect on policy activities that challenged a World Bank supported expensive

hydropower Project

During the public debate many new ideas emerged in the public domain

Page 70: Bridging the Research-Policy Divide in Public Health

New public policies in Nepal (1996-2003)

• National private sector develop cheaper hydropower projects.• Community groups buy electricity from grid and distribute among

members.• 50% royalty from hydropower plants transferred to local

government units.

Outcomes

Contributed to formation of the World Commission on Dams (1998)

Page 71: Bridging the Research-Policy Divide in Public Health

Adaptation conceived as ability to shift strategies in response to climate change stress and enabled by creating climate-resilient livelihoods.

Offers insights in to thinking about emerging policy challenge climate change adaptation.

Page 73: Bridging the Research-Policy Divide in Public Health

Lessons

Grounded analytical evidence enables Advocacy Coalition to contest the policy terrain and bring about changes in public policy.

Political incentives and governance conditions affect ability to design and implement public policies broadly and those related to clean energy pathways.

Public policy processes are linked to basic development goals.

Page 74: Bridging the Research-Policy Divide in Public Health

Broaden Advocacy Alliance on clean energy systems

Hold stakeholders meeting (Use Dialogue Methods)

Immersion course on policy-research linkage on climate change adaptation

Design a Masters Level elective course on policy-researchlinkages

Prepare a policy brief on Clean Energy System pathways

What do I take back to Nepal?

Use the insights in policy activities
