The complexity of issues addressed by research for development (R4D) requires collaborations between partners from a range of disciplines and cultural contexts. Power asymmetries within such partnerships may obstruct the fair distribution of resources, responsibilities and benefits across all partners. This paper presents a cross-case analysis of five R4D partnership evaluations, their methods and how they unearthed and addressed power asymmetries. It contributes to the field of R4D partnership evaluations by detailing approaches and methods employed to evaluate these partnerships. Theory-based evaluations deepened understandings of how equitable partnerships contribute to R4D generating impact and centring the relational side of R4D. Participatory approaches that involved all partners in developing and evaluating partnership principles ensured contextually appropriate definitions and a focus on what partners value.

发展研究（R4D）所涉及问题的复杂性要求来自一系列学科和文化背景的合作伙伴之间开展合作。此类伙伴关系中的权力不对称可能会阻碍所有合作伙伴之间资源、责任和利益的公平分配。本文对五项R4D伙伴关系评估、其方法以及它们如何发现和解决权力不对称问题进行了跨案例分析。它通过详细阐述用于评估这些伙伴关系的方法和手段，为R4D伙伴关系评估领域做出了贡献。基于理论的评估加深了人们对公平伙伴关系如何促进R4D产生影响以及将R4D的关系层面作为核心的理解。让所有合作伙伴参与制定和评估伙伴关系原则的参与式方法确保了定义符合具体情况，并关注合作伙伴所重视的内容。
