The National Research Foundation (NRF) of South Africa requested my assistance with the external expert reviews of the Sustainable Development Goals Pilot Call . This call is endorsed by the Global Research Council (GRC) and is supported by 11 funding agencies spanning four continents and 11 countries. The countries involved include Chile, China, Côte d'Ivoire, Kenya, Norway, South Africa, Switzerland, Sweden, Tanzania, The Netherlands, and Turkey.
My contribution assisted the funders and the responsible secretariat to make recommendations for allocating funding in a fair and transparent manner.
