Outline of Annual Research Achievements

The Postdoctoral Research Fellow (hereafter the Fellow) joined the UNU-IAS in late October 2016. Since then, the fellow has made an excellent progress in carrying out the proposed research project, and producing scholarly and policy outputs. For the Year 2018 until the end of the fellowship period, the fellow drafted scholarly papers, presented papers at the international conferences to share the key findings of the research, and conducted a second round of fieldwork in Laos. To illustrate it, in terms of publication, the fellow has published two policy briefs: one on UN’s sustainable development goals (SDGs) focusing on progress made and challenges faced in the Asia-Pacific region, and the other policy brief on focusing on inclusive development of Nepal. In addition, he has drafted and submitted two manuscripts to international journals for publications. The fellow delivered two presentations at international conferences/symposium in Brazil and Nepal during this period. He also conducted a second round of fieldwork in Laos to further understand the progress in the implementation of SDGs at the local level and the role of agriculture and migration for achieving SDGs. In short, the final year FY2018 has been very productive for publishing and sharing outputs of the research project.
