Research Dissemination Partnerships Highlighting
Key Research Areas

In addition to partnerships for research
implementation, the OVCRD has also been
pursuing partnerships for research
dissemination. The latter presents a very good
opportunity for showcasing UP Diliman’s
achievements in key research areas, hence
OVCRD’s keen interest in this endeavor.
One such partnership is with the UP System’s
Center for Integrative and Development
Studies (CIDS) for the compilation of profiles

researches, totaling 328, was also prepared by
the OVCRD. The annotated bibliography can
be accessed from
Another research dissemination partnership

Policy Research Month (DPRM) last
September 2013. Given the DPRM’s theme for
2013, “Making Health More Inclusive in a

societal issues that have significant
implications on health policy formulation
and/or implementation in the country.
exhibition spotlights UP Diliman’s rich
tradition of research that examines health as a
physiological, social and political
