"Addressing Unmet Needs for Reproductive Health Service:
Decision-Linked Research in the Arab World,"
A success story from Management Sciences for Health.

The Decision-Linked Research Approach establishes effective
partnerships between researchers and decision-makers so research
findings can be transformed into programmatic actions. This 20-page,
pleasingly designed booklet shares the successful collaboration
between the International Planned Parenthood Federation's Arab World
Regional Office and MSH in a project to address unmet needs in
reproductive health services by closing the gap between research and
strategic decision-making.

Many people helped to implement the Decision-Linked Research Approach
in the Arab World including more than 40 individuals working at IPPF,
IPPF/AWRO, serving on the National Advisory Boards of Egypt, Morocco,
and Syria, or serving on an international technical advisory group.

MSH would like to give special thanks to the William and Flora
Hewlett Foundation, whose support has been crucial to the development
and application of the Decision-Linked Research Approach and to
IPPF/AWRO for their assistance throughout the project and the
development of this publication.
