Join our new OACPS R&I InnovationXChange platform

The OACPS Research and Innovation Programme has launched  its online InnovationXChange Platform!

Knowledge creation and sharing are fundamental to making research and innovation a driver for sustainable development.

The InnovationXChange Platform brings together researchers, innovators, policy-makers, academics, civil society and journalists, who believe that exchanging knowledge, skills, experiences and good practices on current and emerging R&I topics and challenges are key to accelerate the changes needed for a sustainable and resilient world.

The InnovationXChange platform enables R&I actors from OACPS member countries to:

• Create or join discussion groups and engage with other community members (in a dedicated virtual discussion forum, called Innovation corner);
• Contact R&I practitioners and become peers;
• Post news, share events or opportunities;
• Get a steady stream of content, published by you or by other community members (latest discussions, news, events, opportunities, library items, etc.);
• Have an open workspace (linkable with your project) to increase your visibility, develop new partnerships, find funding opportunities, etc.

Sign up to our InnovationXChange platform and join our community of change-makers!
