The aim of the research is to explore how policymakers can overcome the challenges they face in integrating knowledge and datafor future governance. This study will use an online-based Delphi study to collect data and to develop a framework to implementinterdisciplinary and system's thinking approaches in developing future policies in low income countries. There is substantialanecdotal evidence on the practical successes and struggles faced in utilising integrative forms of knowledge production for policy,and particular areas of analytic innovation seem applicable and successful in integrative knowledge production for policy: e.g.futures processes, participatory systems mapping exercises, and design-based techniques. However, little has been systematicallysummarised about the difficulties faced in their practice, or why some innovations possess greater popularity and legacy aboveothers. Either in practice and theory, we need to recognise what is working, why, and in what context, or what does not.Primary research question: How do policy analysts integrate knowledge effectively in practice and how can this benefit lowincomecommunities?- R1: How can African policymakers overcome the challenges in integrating knowledge and data for implementing bettergovernance mechanisms?- R2: How can we develop an interdisciplinary approach and a system's thinking framework for African policymakers?- R3: What kind of methods are suitable for developing this framework? (i.e. participatory tools, qualitative, quantitative,mixed methods)- R4: What really works and how easily are interdisciplinary and systems thinking methods learnt and adopted by currentpolicymakers in Africa?

研究的目的是探讨决策者如何克服他们在整合知识和数据以促进未来治理方面面临的挑战。本研究将使用基于在线的德尔菲研究来收集数据，并制定一个框架，以便在低收入国家制定未来政策时实施跨学科和系统思维方法。有大量的轶事证据的实际成功和斗争所面临的利用综合形式的知识生产的政策，和分析创新的特定领域似乎适用于和成功的综合知识生产的政策：例如未来的进程，参与式系统映射练习，和设计为基础的技术。然而，很少有人系统地总结了他们在实践中所面临的困难，或者为什么有些创新比其他创新更受欢迎和传承。无论是在实践中还是在理论上，我们都需要认识到什么是有效的，为什么，在什么情况下，或者什么没有。主要的研究问题：政策分析师如何在实践中有效地整合知识，以及如何使低收入经济体受益？R1：非洲决策者如何克服整合知识和数据以实施更好的治理机制方面的挑战？R2：我们如何为非洲决策者制定跨学科方法和系统思维框架？R3：什么样的方法适合开发这个框架？(i.e.参与性工具、定性、定量、混合方法）-建议4：非洲当前的决策者学习和采用跨学科和系统思维方法的难度有多大？
