STRATEGIES
To enable the most productive outcome from pursuing these research objectives, the unit implements three essential strategies in all projects it undertakes:

	All research must be implemented through training and technology transfer mechanisms that strengthen capacity in Tanzania and at IHRDC in particular.
	All projects must integrate with, support and complement the broader medical and public health activities of IHRDC.
	All projects with external partners must be carried out in balanced partnership that leads to long-lasting, productive and mutually beneficial collaboration.
