Abstract
We represent ten groups of citizens and researchers from low- and middle-income countries who were recipients of International Health Research Awards (IHRA) presented at the Bangkok Conference on International Health Research for Development, 2000. The IHRA, funded by the Rockefeller Foundation and administered by the World Health Organization, recognized the need for us to find effective ways of solving our countries' health problems and acknowledged the special environmental constraints we face in conducting research and exploiting the results. We used this funding to explore alternative ways for harnessing largely untapped resources in our countries to generate and apply knowledge to improve people's health and address inequalities. In the Bangkok Declaration, we joined many others to express our commitment to research as a vital force for health of all of our people.
