Strategic plan

The Research4Life partners are collectively responsible for setting and implementing the Research4Life Strategic Plan. Following the delivery and adoption of the review reports, we have published a new strategic plan to take us through to 2030, which follows “Our vision for 2020 and beyond”, published in 2015.

We normally work on a five-year planning cycle. Towards the end of each cycle, we carry out in-depth evaluations of the partnership to inform and guide the Strategic Plan. These evaluations comprise an internal infrastructure review and an external user review. The most recent reviews were carried out between late 2019 and early 2021. Below, you can find the outputs from these reviews as well as a specially commissioned landscape analysis, which thoroughly assesses the external context within which Research4Life operates.

The landscape analysis aims to inform future decision-making within Research4Life, assessing the shifting dynamics and external influences relevant to equitable access to research.
