ThemesHigh income and low- and middle-income country collaborations
What is this about?
Collaborations between high income countries and low- and middle-income countries are increasingly common in a globalized world.
Why is this important?
Collaborations between high-income countries (HICs) and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) can be mutually beneficial endeavors. Researchers from HIC might benefit from local expertise and experience and gain access to unique resources, environments and participants. Researchers from LMICs potentially benefit from access to funding, international networks and opportunities for local capacity building. Collaborations can also, unfortunately, lead to negative experiences, ranging from different standards in data management and ethics applications to a lack of participation in research agenda setting and even coercive recruitment practices.
For whom is this important?
