4 1. Introduction Building Stronger Universities in Developing Countries (BSU) under Universities Denmark is a partnership between research and higher education institutions in developing countries and in Denmark. BSU is organised in four thematic platforms based on needs in partner countries and an assessment of the Danish competencies and the priorities in the Danish development cooperation: Environment and Climate Growth and Employment Human Health Stability, Democracy and Rights The themes are inter-linked and collaboration and interaction between platforms are strongly encouraged. BSU comprises cooperation involving the seven universities in Denmark and selected universities/research institutions in Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Nepal. Focus is on institutional capacity building, including strengthening the capacity and quality of PhD, Bachelor and Master education, strengthening the capacity to undertake research and disseminating research knowledge to stakeholders and supporting PhDs. The initiative is monitored by a BSU working group under the Rectors Conference. Besides, the Rectors Conference is following the progress of the programme closely and provides support to the overall management of the programme. Phase two of BSU will primarily be a consolidation phase where the partnerships will be consolidated and further strengthened. Focus will continue to be on institutional capacity building. In 2011, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) provided a two-year grant of 60 million DKK to Universities Denmark/BSU (phase one), and in addition, in 2012 a three-year grant of 19 million DKK was allocated for capacity building within research communication, dissemination, and networking for the same partners. Finally, in 2012 a new fellowship programme - the BSU Scholarship Programme was approved with a total budget of 20 million DKK for a two-year period. The aim of the programme was to provide talented students holding a bachelor degree from one of the BSU south partner universities/research institutions with the opportunity to obtain a master's degree from a Danish university. The BSU Scholarship Programme is a pilot programme with a total of 30 scholarships. This Concept Note outlines the proposed continued Building Stronger Universities in Developing Countries, phase two August 2013 December 2015, presenting the envisaged areas of engagement along with potential partners and defining the main approaches to be used. The BSU-programme will be financed with a commitment given in A desk appraisal of the new programme is planned in May Some key strategic questions for the Programme Committee to consider include: 1

5 a) BSU supports institutional capacity building within research, education, and communication/dissemination. Should BSU in phase two also support more general capacity building targeted non-academic staff and provide support to e.g. infra-structure like laboratories, libraries and buildings? b) In implementation of BSU it has become clear that the four thematic platforms are of less importance as the institutional capacity building activities cut across the themes. In phase two, being a consolidation, the themes will be kept, however, for the envisaged coming phases, there could be a need to rethink the usefulness of having the thematic areas in BSU e.g. if BSU should have themes at all? c) BSU currently supports eleven institutions in five countries within the four thematic platforms. In the longer time perspective it will be relevant to discuss the country and institutional focus, including whether BSU should work with more or less countries (e.g. fragile countries), or with other research institutions (e.g. outside the capitals)? Summary of conclusions regarding the envisaged support Phase two is mainly a consolidation phase and BSU will continue to comprise the seven universities in Denmark and eleven research institutions in Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Nepal. Focus will be on institutional capacity building, including strengthening the capacity and quality of PhD Bachelor and Master education, strengthening the capacity to undertake research and disseminating research knowledge to stakeholders, and supporting PhDs. BSU will also continue to be organised in four thematic platforms: 1) Human Health; 2) Growth and Employment; 3) Environment and Climate, and 4) Stability, Democracy and Rights. However, the coordination and collaboration between the platforms and with other donors and actors will be strengthened in phase two as well as the south-south collaboration. Phase two will be implemented according to the conditions already agreed upon with Universities Denmark for phase one and two of BSU in terms of co-financiering requirements and allocation between institutions in Denmark and in partner countries. The overhead for the Danish partners will remain the same (20%) whereas the overhead to the partners in the South will be revised to a maximum of 12%. 2. Conclusions from preparatory analyses justifying the envisaged support Key experience of previous support In June 2011 when The Danida Board endorsed the support to phase one of BSU, they also recommended that a review should be undertaken at the end of the first phase. 2

6 Therefore a review of the current support has recently been undertaken by Universities Denmark by a Norwegian and a Tanzanian consultant. A representative from the MFA participated in the review as a resource person. The overall aim of the review was to inform the planning of phase two, and the specific objectives of the review were to assess the partnership between Universities Denmark and universities/research institutions in the partner countries, the added value by BSU to the strengthening of the institutions in the South, and the governance structures of BSU at overall platform and institutional level. The review report presents some interesting and positive findings see more details below however, the report also has certain weaknesses e.g. in terms of not covering sufficiently all the areas mentioned in the terms of references. According to the MFA, the review report can therefore not be used as the only basis for assessing BSU and informing the planning of phase two. Consequently, MFA will undertake a desk appraisal of the application for support to phase two of BSU in May. The main conclusions of the review were that the partners in the South value the focus of BSU on institutional capacity building, including the sandwich model used for capacity building of the staff member, and BSU is not perceived as a funding programme for research activities. The current BSU structures (management, governance and communication) are assessed as appropriate by the partners in Denmark and in the South, although it had taken some time in the start-up phase to get all the practical things working smoothly. The thematic areas - 1) Environment and Climate; 2) Growth and Employment; 3) Human Health, and 4) Stability, Democracy and Rights - seemed of less relevance to the partners in the South in terms of implementation of the specific activities. However, they functioned as an organizing principle for e.g. calls for PhD grants. In particular for Stability, Democracy and Rights the themes played an important role at the institutions, and the themes were seen as highly relevant in the context of three countries. The review mentions a discussion among the partners, in particular in the South, of the possibilities of BSU also supporting more general capacity building to nonacademic staff member and e.g. supporting infrastructure, IT, capacity building of non-academic staff members, and in particular among the Danish partners some discussion still prevail on funds for research projects as part of BSU. Most of the platforms reported on their challenges with heavy workloads and what they perceived as limited incentives structures in BSU. The review report highlights the ownership and leadership of the Rectors Conference to the BSU programme e.g. by committing the Danish universities to providing co-financing to BSU. However, according to the report these institutional commitments have not yet been adequately reflected in the working conditions of individual staff members. Donor coordination and more strategic approaches to institutional capacity building at the various institutions were generally lacking or not very well developed. 3

7 As for recommendation for phase two more South-South as well as platformplatform interaction was asked for. The length of the next phase of BSU was discussed during the review e.g. if it should be a longer programme with the same budget, as BSU in 2012 had received additional funds for communication/dissemination as well as for the new fellowship programme. The partners in the South tended to favour a longer programme period of the next phase. Strategic conclusions and considerations Research-based knowledge is necessary to address development problems faced by partner countries. Development research can play a key role in bringing about a (global) knowledge-based society. It is also one of the requisites for innovation and growth in any society. The development strategy The Right to a Better Life concentrates on four strategic priority areas: Human Rights and Democracy, Green Growth, Social progress and Stability and Protection. The strategy also outlines the importance of involving a wide range of partners, including research organisations, and the strategy defines the objective of Danida s support to development research as Strengthen research capacity in partner countries and generate new knowledge, which can address development problems. BSU complements the support provided through The Consultative Research Committee on Development Research which focuses more on support to strategic research programmes with elements of individual capacity building. BSU focuses on strengthening the capacity of institutions in partner countries to develop and implement research and education programmes and effectively disseminate the research results. The four thematic platforms are therefore very well linked to the strategic focus of the development strategy. Assessment summary of relevant budget support principles The ten budget support principles describe important issues to consider when assessing whether general budget support is feasible. The ten principles are not relevant for the BSU-programme. 3. Preliminary overview of envisaged programme support Brief justification Studies show that only 2% of the world s researchers live in Africa, and that African researchers produce less than 1% of world output of scientific articles. Furthermore, within Africa researchers are concentrated in a few countries. The partner countries cannot meet the massive challenges and needs for country-specific research and capacity development on their own. Consequently, assistance from the donor community remains necessary, not only by passing on knowledge produced in donor countries, internationally, and in cooperation with developing countries, but also by supporting research capacity development in partner countries. 4

8 Based on the challenges outlined above and the experience from Danish support for development research so far, the objective of the support to development research takes the point of departure in the needs of partner countries. The main objective of the Danish support to development research is to strengthen research capacity in partner countries and to create new knowledge capable of alleviating development problems. This objective is to be supported by pursuing three specific objectives, and considering the diversity of the needs in the various partner countries: To strengthen research capacity in partner countries. To strengthen innovative research which can contribute to addressing development problems. To strengthen the use of research results. BSU focuses on strengthening the capacity of institutions in partner countries to develop and implement research and education programmes and effectively disseminate the research results. Support strategy and modality In the BSU programme, the institutional capacity building concept in relation to the South universities/research institutions will emphasize: strengthening the capacity of the institution to develop and implement education and research programmes, and effectively disseminate the research results. The programme will include capacity development activities in the partner institutions in the following areas: development and strengthening of relevant PhD programmes (PhD courses, supervision guidelines, training of supervisors) support the capacity to undertake research-based education and supervision within selected areas of research by increasing the number of academic staff with PhD qualifications (PhD scholarships) strengthening relevant research capacity and international collaboration (joint research projects and research networks) strengthening methods and capacity for effective dissemination of research results and findings to stakeholders (PhD courses, senior staff training and web development) building capacity for effective and efficient management of activities (mentor programmes and staff training) building capacity for effective external fundraising (support to fundraising units and proposal development). As mentioned, phase two will mainly be a consolidation phase, and will be implemented according to the conditions already agreed on with Universities Denmark for phase one and two of BSU in terms of co-financiering requirements 5

9 (1:1 of the Danish part of the budget) and allocation between institutions in Denmark and in partner countries (45/55 in year one and 60/40 in year two of phase two). The overhead for the Danish partners will remain 20% whereas the overhead to the partners in the South will be revised to a maximum of 12% as the current 7% has been assessed as being too low according to national regulations in some of the five countries. Based on the findings from the review, phase two will explore the possibilities for more South-South collaboration, better donor coordination, and in additional encourage more cross and joint platform activities. Depending on the specific needs identified in the partner countries, some Danish universities and their faculties/institutes will be very active and others will play a less dominant role. In phase two, a review of the programme will be conducted by MFA in order to provide guidance on the country focus in a third phase. The countries will have to be partner countries for Danida and countries with a substantial and longterm involvement and collaboration between researchers from Denmark and researchers from the partner country. The collaboration between Danish and south partner institutions will be based on the assumption that the Danish research institutions participating in BSU are bringing added value to the partnership. E.g. with long-term involvement in human and institutional capacity building in developing countries, and scientific/academic strength within the selected scientific focus areas of the platform. Other research institutions outside Danish Universities can, if relevant, participate as associated partners, and participate in the specific activities - e.g. as in the current phase in the Platform for Human Health where the hospitals are participating in thematic working groups. If other partners want to participate, they participate under the same conditions as the other Danish Universities partners. Preliminary budget The overall budget is envisaged to be 90 million DKK for a two year and five month period (August 2013-December 2015). The Rectors Conference has suggested the following distribution of the total budget between the four platforms and the Universities Denmark Secretariat: Growth and Employment Platform 25.5 Platform on Human Health 25.5 Platform on Environment and Climate 18.0 Platform on Stability, Democracy and Rights 18.0 Universities Denmark secretariat 3.0 Total

10 When the application from Universities Denmark has been received, the MFA will appraise the proposal, including the relevance of the suggested budget with special attention to a more equal distribution of the budget between the four platforms, and the question of funding a staff member at the Universities Denmark Secretariat. The review of phase two will be outside the budget provided to Universities Denmark. Management structure The management of BSU is envisaged to be as follows: The Rectors Conference of Universities Denmark, assisted by the Universities Denmark Secretariat and advised by the Universities Denmark/BSU working group, will oversee the implementation of BSU. They will also have the overall responsibility of the appropriate use and reporting of the core funding from MFA. Each of the four platforms will have a Danish Platform Steering Committee with representatives from the involved Danish universities which is chaired by a chairperson appointed by the Rectors Conference. The Platform Steering Committee approves the overall platform activity plans and budgets, guides the division of tasks and responsibilities between the Danish partners, and reports back to UD. The Platform Steering Committee is supported by small Platform Secretariat, hosted at one of the Danish universities. The Platform Secretariat manages funds, organises and coordinates the collaboration among the partner universities/research institutions in Denmark and the partner countries. The collaboration between the involved thematic platforms and the partner institutions in the South is governed by a joint BSU Partnership Steering Committee while day-to-day planning, implementation and coordination takes place within the Working Groups of the four platforms. In the recent review of BSU, the management, governance and communication structures were reviewed and although it might seem complex and daunting it was assessed to function well. In particular, the structures in Denmark were originally setup to accommodate the need to ensure ownership. Therefore it is not envisaged to make any major changes in the management structures in phase two. Harmonisation As was mentioned earlier, one of the findings from the review of phase one of BSU was that donor coordination and collaboration is not very well developed at the partner institutions. It is a general tendency within development research that coordination has not moved very far and therefore there is a need for strengthening collaboration, harmonisation and alignment both at international and at national levels within development research. BSU can in phase two do more also to strengthen the capacity of the partner institutions in terms of donor coordination. 7

11 Support towards preparing national research strategies and strengthening national research councils in partner countries is on the agenda for the new Danish strategic frame for development research. Risk and assumptions BSU is subject to several risks, which will be specific to each country and collaborating institutions. The risks include technical, financial, policy, and sustainability aspects. The key assumptions relate to: 1) Research and research capacity development is recognized by relevant stakeholders; 2) Research agendas, partnership approaches and capacity development targets are relevant to country priorities; 3) Partner universities/research institutions have sufficient, well-recognized scientific and research capacity development skills and experience; 4) Research, education and management competences available among partners; 5) Existing trust among collaborating institutions/researchers is maintained. BSU will identify and analyse the risks to define measures that will reduce the likelihood of their occurrence and that will reduce the impact if the risk does materialise. E.g. financial, administrative, and legal risks are minimised through a professional project management with clear guidelines for all participating institutions. The risk related to scientific networking and collaboration will be minimised through selection of experienced partners with recognised expertise and long-standing track records. 8

19 e. HRBA Screening The BSU programme is a capacity building programme and therefore most of the areas mentioned in the screening note is of less relevance to the programme. The note was partly filled. In general, the platform on Stability, Democracy and Rights is working on building the institutional capacity of the Uganda, Kenya and Nepal in order to ensure that there is a national capacity to work with HRBA among other things. HRBA Screening Note Purpose: The HRBA Screening Note complements the HRBA Guidance Note. The purpose of the note is to facilitate and strengthen the application of the Human Rights Based Approach to development in policy dialogue and programming related to Danish development cooperation. It can be used as an inspiration checklist by all staff. The preparation of the HRBA screening note is mandatory for all Danish programme support. Preferable, the HRBA screening note should be developed in collaboration with the partner country and relevant donors. The HRBA screening note will be updated through the programme cycle (preparation, formulation and appraisal) accounting for the integration of the HRBA in key documents pertaining to these phases. This means that the Analysis section must be prepared for Concept Note submission while the questions in the Policy Dialogue, Formulation and Results/Indicators sections can be filled tentatively at this point. These sections must then be updated or elaborated on for the appraisal and submission to Financing Decision. In order to minimize duplication of work, please highlight key pages or sections in the relevant document(s) below, indicating where HRBA is reflected. This may include information on results, actions or expectations related to the identified dutybearers/right-holders.
