The Policy Linkages and Impact Assessment program has twin aims: to make small, strategic investments to improve interdisciplinary linkages between economics and biophysical agricultural research and development in developing countries and Australia; and to foster the monitoring, evaluation and impact assessment of ACIAR-funded research for development.
