The fundamental issue isabout linking, coordinating, collabo-ratingandintegratingtheon-goingef-fortsofimprovementinIFMSA(topicssuchasGAs/RMs,EthicalGuidelines,Institutional Strengthening, as wellexploringpotentialafewotheronesrelatedtoGAprogramming,StrategicPlanning,etc). The aim is not to be radical,but to address the needs of IFM-SA based on an analysis from a core groupinacollaborativemanner.
what is reform?
