Our research focus, projects and resources

Research focus 
GCP research in Phase I (2004–2008), was composed of three complementary funding mechanisms — competitive projects, commissioned research projects and focus projects. More

In Phase (2009–2013), the focus is primarily on CIs and Platforms, based on recommendations on the External Programme and Management Review (EPMR), other external evaluations, and internal self-assessment. See GCP Reviews and evaluations
