Building Knowledge, Together
Equitable partnerships are at the heart of Dikoda’s work. We collaborate with national institutions, community organisations, and technical partners around the world to co-create research that is rigorous, relevant, and locally owned. Guided by the Trust Code for Equitable Research Partnerships, our model ensures knowledge, risks, and benefits are shared fairly.
Our Partnership Model
- Co-creation – research priorities and methods defined together.
- Equity & Inclusion – shared voice, credit, and resources.
- Transparency – open budgets, clear roles, joint governance.
- Capacity Exchange – two-way learning and skills transfer.
- Adaptive Learning – continuous reflection and improvement.
How We Collaborate
From proposal design to implementation, we work hand-in-hand with partners:
- Co-designing research frameworks and budgets.
- Sharing governance through joint steering committees and technical working groups.
- Ensuring financial flows, risk-sharing, and recognition are equitable.
- Embedding capacity exchange through mentoring, co-publications, and joint fieldwork.
