| dcterms.abstract | Minutes of the Centre Directors Meeting, January 9 1988 report a decision by center directors that the Africa paper will provide the basis for an agricultural research strategy for Africa, identifying the background to the problems and activities and in consonance with the TAC Strategies and Priorities paper. Center Directors agree to the formation of a public awareness council and a public awareness association but do not agree for the time being to form the Publicity Unit. Other matters covered in the minutes relate to preparations for the mid-term meeting that focus on leadership issues in the CGIAR, specifically the criteria and time tables for inclusion of additional centers in the CG System, the future of the CGIAR System—what it would look like in 2000 AD in terms of governance, management, membership and scope | en_US |
