Barring exceptions such as initiatives by the International Network for Governmental Science Advice, very few training programmes aim to develop capacity of policy makers, especially in the Global South. In response to these needs, the National Academy of Sciences of Sri Lanka and the Association of Academies and Societies of Sciences in Asia (AASSA), conducted a project titled Institutionalising Science Advice to Governments. Its key objectives was to develop an appropriate framework to understand the process of institutionalisation of SAP. The Colombo Framework so developed integrated four clusters: the SAP process; guiding values and principles; supporting institutional and legislative structures; and evaluating SAP. It was validated by experts and used for designing a questionnaire to assess current SAP practices across AASSA member countries which enabled data gathering on the diversity of models of SAP, their challenges and best practices. The framework also helped structure an international workshop to share country-level situation analyses, formulate roadmaps for implementation and build consensus on the relevance of institutionalising SAP. The latter culminated in the Colombo Declaration, urging governments to strengthen science\u2013policy engagements. Short-term and long-term feedback from participants indicated high utility of the framework for understanding and operationalising SAP in diverse contexts. The framework offers a systematic approach for countries, especially in the Asia-Pacific region, to institutionalise SAP and for scientists to gain in-depth understanding of the process.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1332\/17442648y2026d000000082","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,5]],"date-time":"2026-03-05T15:37:42Z","timestamp":1772725062000},"page":"301-316","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Bridging science and policy in the Global South: the Colombo Framework for Institutionalizing Science Advice"],"prefix":"10.1332","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1460-6073","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Saroj","family":"Jayasinghe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Colombo and National Academy of Sciences of Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3985-1817","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Nadira","family":"Karunaweera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Colombo and National Academy of Sciences of Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nethmi","family":"Gunasekera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Colombo, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lakmali","family":"Amarasiri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Colombo, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ranjith","family":"Mahindapala","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Academy of Sciences of Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3674-7600","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Nilwala","family":"Kottegoda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Sri Jayewardenepura and National Academy of Sciences of Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0333-7189","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Priyan","family":"Dias","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology and National Academy of Sciences of Sri Lanka, Sri Lanka"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"165","reference":[{"key":"CIT0001","series-title":"Tracking Global Evidence-to-Policy Pathways in the Coronavirus Crisis: A Preliminary Report","author":"Allen, K.","year":"2022","unstructured":"Allen, K., Buklijas, T., Chen, A., Simon-Kumar, N., Cowen, L., Wilsdon, J., et al (2022) Tracking Global Evidence-to-Policy Pathways in the Coronavirus Crisis: A Preliminary Report, International Network for Government Science Advice, September 2022, https:\/\/covid.ingsa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/INGSA-Evidence-to-Policy-Tracker_Report-1_FINAL_17Sept.pdf (Accessed: 29 August 2025)."},{"key":"CIT0002","article-title":"Scientific Advisory Board","year":"nd","unstructured":"Anonymous (nd) Scientific Advisory Board, https:\/\/www.un.org\/scientific-advisory-board\/en (Accessed: 29 September 2025)."},{"issue":"2","key":"CIT0003","series-title":"Tropical Parasitology","first-page":"159","article-title":"An e-mail interview with Dr. Nadira Karunaweera, Senior Professor and Chair, Head of Department Parasitology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Colombo, Sri Lanka","volume":"6","year":"2016","unstructured":"Anonymous (2016) An e-mail interview with Dr. Nadira Karunaweera, Senior Professor and Chair, Head of Department Parasitology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Colombo, Sri Lanka, Tropical Parasitology, 6(2): 159\u201362. doi: 10.4103\/2229-5070.190837"},{"issue":"4","key":"CIT0004","series-title":"Evidence & Policy","first-page":"633","article-title":"How did UK policymaking in the COVID-19 response use science?
