Abstract
<p><strong>Aim</strong>: To map the literature on Research Capacity Development (RCD) interventions: at individual, institutional, organisational, and policy levels; to identify the extent of research based knowledge; to note gaps in the evidence; and to make recommendations for future research. <br /><strong>Objectives:</strong> This scoping review aimed to fulfil the following objectives: To identify and characterise the existing literature on RCD with relation to its coverage, quantity and quality; to develop a comprehensive taxonomy of interventions to promote RCD and to identify theoretical models of RCD; to classify interventions to promote RCD with regard to the target of that intervention at individual, professional; institutional, organisational (including networks and teams), or policy level; to identify which RCD interventions have been evaluated, and to assess the rigour, methods and relevance of the findings; to identify and critique measures used to assess the effectiveness of RCD interventions; to develop recommendations about future RCD initiatives and to identify a research agenda for measuring and assessing RCD.</p>
