We identify four main areas for action, with specific policy recommendations for research funders and policymakers: 1. Increase funding for SDGrelated research and innovation, particularly in low-income countries 2. Devote more funding to research that addresses underlying social inequalities, social innovations and informal research, in combination with technical solutions 3. Improve alignment between countries’ SDG priorities and their STI portfolios 4. Adopt a more holistic approach to research evaluation, with indicators and data that relate to a range of desired inputs, outcomes and impacts
