MAPGuideⓇ: Equitable Access Toolkit

Equitable Access Provisions for R&D Funding Agreements

GHIAA’s “Equitable Access Pyramid” is a tool to aid best practice approaches by presenting key building blocks for the translation of equitable access objectives into meaningful and measurable agreement provisions. Each block in the Pyramid below is linked to a deep-dive into the different approaches that can be used to address that topic, alongside illustrative examples of language that has been used in actual agreements.

This toolkit has been built based on the data in the MAPGuide and the GHIAA team’s experience of negotiating and implementing agreements. We intend that the toolkit will evolve and expand over time based on input from MAPGuide users and availability of new agreements showing examples of alternative approaches. We welcome ongoing constructive dialogue around these materials and encourage you to contact us or fill in our feedback survey to share your thoughts, questions and suggestions.
