The new
BIO-EARN Programme period will run between 2006-2009. At the beginning of
this phase, the
management structure was revised to
ensure regional ownership of the Programme. During
2006-2009 the eastern African network partners will be fully
responsible for the management of the BIO-EARN Programme.
BIO-EARN's
New Management
Structure:
The
BIO-EARN Programme is
coordinated through the Regional Coordination Office
housed at the Inter University Council of East Africa (IUCEA).
Considerable coordination within the large research consortia
will be undertaken by project Principal Investigators (PIs)
and Lead Institutions.
During
Phase I and II (1998-2005) the BIO-EARN management structure composed
a Steering Committee, General Assembly,
Coordination Office and network institutions. During these
earlier phases, the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) was
responsible for overall Programme management.
The
new role of SEI is to provide institutional support to the Policy
Project (BIO-EARN Project 5), give technical backstopping to the Regional
Coordination Office, and provide administrative and logistical
support to Swedish institutions collaborating with eastern
African scientists.
