Surprisingly it was found that many institutions who worked in the arena of public policy, advocacy and policy analysis are actually doing research with less or no understanding of doing research. Given this fact, Atlas Network wanted CPPR to impart training in research to institutions and individual researchers who can utilise the skills for their activities in their home countries.
