SCAR EXCOM 2017 Paper 23: SCAR Development Council Report

Development Council

Agenda Item: 6
Person Responsible: P. Convey

Report Author(s): Peter Convey

Summary:

This report provides a short update on matters relating to the Development Council since the previous report given in Kuala Lumpur. The major activity has been the composition and sending to all SCAR Delegates and Group Leaders of a letter setting out our view of their key role in identifying and in many likely cases initially pursuing possible avenues of funding or other support at their national level for the benefit of SCAR activities. This generated a number of supportive responses, and three new funding contributions towards the Visiting Fellowship and Professorship programmes, from India, Norway and Switzerland.
