Strongly marked by "research for development" policies formulated after the Second World War, they depend on global funding for research, always linked to an explicit or implicit research agenda. Agenda-setting, either in the framework of research for development programmes or science diplomacy schemes, is a complex process involving a large variety of actors with conflicting interests in knowledge production. We argue that researchers from non-hegemonic countries participating in research collaborations, in spite of being in unequal positions, deploy strategies in response to foreign agendas and are playing an active role in the co-construction of proposals that are acceptable by foreign agencies and for their own needs. %$ 106
