 Thank you. So I'll be speaking to you on my project, which is on assessing funding for COVID-19 health research in Africa. And one of the important considerations in my work is that funding really does influence various parts of the research cycle from when research is conceived to right when it's actually undertaken and evaluated. And there's evidence around the evaluation of funding for COVID research globally, which has shown that there have been significant inefficiencies, but there's limited data for Africa. So in my research project, focusing on Africa, the continent, and I'm looking at assessing the research funding based on some considerations of how efficient the funding was, how effective it was, and how equitable funding was for undertaking COVID research in Africa. So it's really looking at researching on the research process itself, but focusing on funding for research. The overall objective of my work is to outline some key lessons learned so that we're better prepared for future epidemics and pandemics. So the approach I'm taking is to do an explanatory sequential mixed method study, which are completely the quantitative elements of which it looked at mapping the research involving at least one African country using a global database of funded COVID-19 research. And you can see that from here very limited research involved in the African country when you look at all the research that was captured globally. And in these very limited projects, you'll see that not all of them necessarily focused on the research areas that were prioritized by African researchers during the pandemic. I also looked at the trend in funding over time and it suggests that there was a delayed response in Africa, but interestingly, the research area that dominated over the two-year period that I assessed was in the social sciences. So to try and explain some of these findings, the second bit of my work is looking at a qualitative research study that is looking really through the experiences of the PIs based in African research institutions that receive funding for COVID-19 research. And then also the grant managers that manage this funding to understand really what their experiences are for the key enablers and barriers in identifying research funding opportunities, applying for those funding opportunities and managing them. So I've outlined some of the considerations that I'm taking as I'm doing my sampling for this work to really understand what the process bits of the funding were. And this is really ongoing work, so I'm looking forward to sharing my findings in due course. Thank you.
