Increasing and Strengthening Published Outputs in Indonesia's Research Environment

This 4-day workshop, co-delivered by leading researchers from the UK and Indonesia, will bring together a multidisciplinary group of Indonesian mental health early career researchers (ECR) focused on enhancing writing for publication in high impact journals. Following the workshop, we will offer sustained mentoring for 6-12 months. Compared to the size of the economy and population of Indonesia there’s a substantial gap between actual and potential research output.

The proposed 4 day workshop builds on existing relationships with Indonesia and aims to strengthen three key bottlenecks in Indonesia’s research ecosystem, by i) increasing R&D opportunities and researcher career development by enhancing the competitiveness of ECR research funding applications (ii) increasing the quality of research outputs by strengthening ECR skills in writing high-impact publications and iii) increasing research impact by developing ECR skills in knowledge mobilisation.
