The World Bank has identified as one of its goals improved decision making
and pro-poor resource allocation in transport and rural utilities, and
through its TRISP programme aims to strengthen the demand for, and improve
access to relevant knowledge. DFID is working with the Bank on the TRISP
project, and as an initial contribution has proposed a knowledge demand
assessment to review what is already known about knowledge demand and
the role of information in livelihoods and policy processes, the demand
for information and knowledge by different stakeholders, and map the knowledge
and learning environments in the World Bank and DFID and their transport
information products with intended audiences, circulation and evidence
of impact. ODI was contracted to undertake a rapid, internet-based literature
review to launch this process.
