This podcast explores the politics of knowledge production, especially the flow of funding and related implications of the influence from the Global North. Focusing on the structural barriers that shape the visibility, voice, and ownership of knowledge products, the podcast found that the Global North funding systems shape research agendas, with locally led research remaining difficult in practice due to the publication systems, language barriers, and data ownership schemes that reinforce inequalities. The podcast highlights the need for an alternative model that fosters fairness and collaboration in global knowledge production.
