To make best use of the expansive data in the COVID-19 Research Project Tracker, UKCDR & GloPID-R have produced a Living Mapping Review of COVID-19 funded research projects, which analyses globally funded COVID-19 related research.
As the COVID-19 global research funding response has hit a plateau, the Living Mapping Review (LMR) continues to provide valuable information for the international community of researchers and funders. The latest and sixth iteration of the LMR is the first to include an in-depth analysis of existing research into new COVID-19 variants.
We are pleased to announce the appointment of Dr Maggy Heintz as Executive Director of UKCDR.
Recap of UKCDR's event on global equitable research partnerships on 10 March 2022
A report, ‘Funding and undertaking research during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic: COVID CIRCLE lessons for funders’, published today, presents key lessons and future guidance for research funders to address the challenges of funding and conducting research in the context of an epidemic or pandemic, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
A new briefing paper from the UK Collaborative on Development Research (UKCDR) shows how the UK can play a key partnership role in strengthening research systems in low- and middle-income countries to tackle global issues.
UK Collaborative on Development Research (UKCDR) has found that since 2015 the UK has invested over half a billion pounds on climate change and international development research, according to a much-anticipated report published today.

UKCDR and ESSENCE announce the launch of new Equitable Partnerships Resource Hub. The resource hub brings together existing guidance, tools and principles on equitable partnerships from across the world.
An article by UKCDR, GloPID-R and the the Covid-19 Clinical Research Coalition published in The Lancet calls for urgent collaboration and coordination for unmet, underfunded COVID-19 research priorities in low-resource settings.
We provide an overview of the latest research for international development funding opportunities in the UK: ranging from major initiatives to small research grants, workshop and travel grants, prizes and awards, and individual fellowships and studentships.
These resources from global partners provide guidance on how to ensure that the concept of equity is built into a partnership from its formation, as well as advice on how to organise research collaborations to achieve a mutual spread of responsibilities and benefits.
