Organisational Capacity Building (OCB): longitudinal case studies exploring processes of organisational capacity building and related support in policy research organisations is a participatory project involving 5 organisations from within the Think Tank Initiative and IDRC. This project involves case studies of 5 organisations within the Think Tank Initiative, namely SDP (Pakistan), IEA (Ghana), Grupo-Faro (Ecuador), IPAR (Rwanda) and CEPA, to explore the question ''what forms of support are most helpful to policy research organisations in building their organisational capacity, specifically in relation to research quality, and why". The OCB research was carried out using an Action Research Methodology and is expected to be shared within the TTI community and beyond through a publication due out in 2013.
