Network Research Navigator

By PSP-One

Published: 2005

The Network Research Navigator (NRN) is an active research tool for the reproductive health community who are interested in the topic of networks. It is intended to help one navigate the growing literature on networks and easily retrieve articles, case studies, assessment tools and summaries as needed.

The information is stored in a single excel spreadsheet and categorized within a series of internal worksheets. The NRN provides a compendium of the key literature to date, including material on existing commercial networks, social franchises and non-profit organizations. Full reports and papers are currently linked to the spreadsheet and can be downloaded immediately.

While the NRN is designed to immediately serve the PSP-One team research the literature on networks, it will evolve into a sophisticated analytical tool available on-line to the broader community. Beyond presenting information in a consolidated format, the NRN will offer analysis of selected networks, self-assessment instruments and training materials fundamental to achieving network viability and scale in the private sector. The NRN is a work in progress. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to build on this framework and develop a tool that is relevant and useful to us all.

If you have any questions or comments on the NRN, please contact Taara Chandani.
