Four initiative advisory panels appointed

Dear Colleagues,

I am happy to announce that we have appointed advisory panel members for four of the five ANR strategic initiatives.  The advisory panels will be working with the initiative leaders to develop a five-year plan of action for implementing each initiative. If you have suggestions for shaping the plans of action, I encourage you to share them with the appropriate initiative leader or panel members.

Once the plans of action have been developed, ANR will provide competitive funds that can be used to attract faculty and researchers and extension advisors to ultimately provide research and education to fulfill the initiatives’ objectives.

We are working on appointing an initiative leader and an advisory panel for Water Quality, Quantity and Security (WQQS). The appointed strategic initiative leaders and panels are at http://ucanr.org/PDFs/2-17-10.pdf.

Sincerely,

Barbara Allen-Diaz
Associate Vice President, Academic Programs and Strategic Initiatives
