The group must then prioritise the needs of the different countries, and choose the one country whose needs best fits the opportunities

The group then prepares an Action Plan for that country

Action Plan

The Action Plan should describe what Knowledge Transfer and Technology Transfer is needed

It should take into account food production, food supply and processing chains and consumer demands

It should have a realistically implementable time frame

Report The report should be written as if it was to be read

by a governmental or institutional Task Force considering Food Security

Task Force people are usually highly intelligent and can absorb clear messages quickly. They do not have time to read long reports, but they do need data that supports key points

Therefore the report might have:• A clear “Executive Summary” that will fit on one page,• Written text of no more than 10 pages• If possible, a clear and self-explanatory figure summarising each of the

main conclusions • Supporting data supplied as Annexes.
