IPEA is an organism of the Federal Government and has tools and resources that can favor the design and the implementation of networks. Considering the challenges in Brazil’s political agenda – associated with the social debt accumulated in the previous decades and the need to promote the reduction of regional inequalities – the institution is setting up many institutional linkages which aim at widening the investigation and knowledge capacities on the Brazilian reality. At the same time, it intends to contribute to the strengthening of the Planning for the Development through the strategic enhancement of planning institutions, research and statistics, academic and university centers, government organisms, besides organizations and entities of the civil society which want to contribute to the execution of the research initiatives nationally coordinated by IPEA.
