Thinking and Working Politically: Community of Practice

The Thinking and Working Politically (TWP) Community of Practice (CoP) aims to help practitioners understand how to translate the evidence that political factors are usually much more important in determining developmental impact than the scale of aid funding or the technical quality of programming into operationally relevant guidance. The CoP undertakes the following activities: workshops and working groups to bring together practitioners and researchers to discuss issues related to thinking and working politically; learning resources to support agencies in adopting politically-aware approaches across their activities; and, case studies and research reports to support sharing knowledge and experience.
