Summary of Recommendations. The unifying theme of these recommendations is energetic interculturalism that capitalizes on existing capacities and resources. All of the recommended strategies are strategies that the coalition has already been employing in some way. The Xxxx group and CAIA, who closely partnered for the NIDI study, already represent an intercultural mix of capacities (scientific nutrition knowledge and cultural experience) and a fusion of interests between nutrition and reproductive health. The focus groups of this project provided an initial opportunity for mothers to tell their stories, and CAIA’s nutrition workshops have focused on food to teach nutrition concepts in a fun way, where mothers get to prepare and try smoothies and purees with their babies. Similarly, the proposed actions capitalize on existing resources and initiatives (e.g., the recipe book, videos in waiting rooms, workshops). These actions are not mutually exclusive; for example, problem-posing group activities could occur in waiting rooms or as part of nutrition workshops. These recommendations build from what is already there—and interculturalism is not a foreign concept; it is something rooted in Bolivia’s vibrant politics and society. By mindfully engaging in an intercultural approach, the coalition can maximize its role in helping mothers and health service providers transform their community into a more nutritious one.
Summary of Recommendations. (i) What is required, in addition to the generic principles, is more specific content, more specific commitments which are more readily implemented and for which people can be held accountable. As a bare minimum the six commitments made in the 2001 Statement should at least be retained, but preferably added to and made even more specific and accountable, in the way envisaged by the 2009 Review, and in particular its 15 recommendations.
Summary of Recommendations. 1) PFID-MSP should focus the remaining two years of the Cooperative Agreement on technical assistance and capacity building in the area of international food safety and quality standards, with the aim of sustainability by the end of the Cooperative Agreement. The work plans for years 3 and 4 should reflect this focus.
Summary of Recommendations. 1. The ICBS aim for an on-line solution, which means real or near real time service for monitoring and management of interviewers work in field. They have necessary devices, skills in producing digital maps as well as good, communication between regional centers and interviewers. This is a key point if the ICBS will use CAPI together with CAWI and CATI in the same time. The necessary condition in order to build the right IT tools is a precise description of functional requirements, for these tools are expected by the Survey Department for the reallocation of the interviewers tasks based on geospatial presentation of the maps.
Summary of Recommendations. 5.2.1 In order to minimize / avoid the need of imported materials in the Project, the contractors shall be encouraged, under supervision by the Resident Site Staff, to have proper site management to maximize available space for storage of C&D materials during the course of construction stage.
Summary of Recommendations. For patients with dyspnea of suspected cardiac origin, diagnostic imaging should usually be started with chest radiography followed by resting TTE. • To exclude ischemia in patients with dyspnea due to HF, stress echocardiography, stress MRI, stress SPECT, or stress PET can be used as equivalent alternatives. In low- and intermediate-risk populations, CT coronary angiography can be used. Invasive catheter coronary angiography remains the clinical gold standard to diagnose CAD. • MRI heart function and morphology with intravenous contrast is used in patients with dyspnea due to nonischemic HF with excluded ischemia to characterize the etiology of nonischemic HF. • In patients with dyspnea due to suspected VHD with excluded ischemia, transesophageal echocardiography or MRI can be used to further evaluate structure and function of cardiac valves and ventricles. CT heart function with intravenous contrast is appropriate for some clinical scenarios. • In patients with dyspnea due to suspected cardiac arrhythmia and excluded ischemia, MRI heart function and morphology with intravenous contrast is a valuable imaging method to obtain additional diagnostic information. • In patients with dyspnea due to suspected pericardial disease and excluded ischemia, MRI heart function and morphology or CT heart function or CTA chest provides complementary information with respect to the morphologic and functional features of the diseased pericardium.

Summary of Recommendations. Regarding observational data, it is recommended the following activities be considered in the frame of the Copernicus In Situ component and in close cooperation with the Copernicus Services: Work directly with the Copernicus Services whose outputs are less directly linked to environmental conditions to ensure that they are updated on the availability of in situ data relevant for their service; Carry out a detailed gap analysis when the requirements from the individual services have been mapped; Analyse the need for a common data policy framework across meteorological, atmospheric composition and marine data delivered to Copernicus Services; Support that common access agreements enabling assured access to in situ observational data are established across the Copernicus Service elements and that actions are taken to ensure that all of the Copernicus services understand how to apply these; Work on finding practical solutions to data licensing and attribution that clearly emphasises the role of the in-situ data without blocking its use because it is impossible to fulfil the data licence requirement. Investigate how to harmonise and standardise metadata associated with meteorological, hydrological and atmospheric observation in cooperation with WMO: Play an active role in definition of data quality requirements for ocean data to meet the need of Copernicus services; Analyse the sustainability of existing European observation networks; In cooperation with EuroGOOS and EOOS establish a forum that brings funders, operators and users of marine in situ data together; As entrusted entity, EEA should work with member states (at political level) to consolidate and sustain their contribution to the in-situ component of Copernicus; Analyse the results of OSE and OSSE experiments carried out in research projects to identify where additional observations can improve prediction skills and reduce uncertainties of Xxxxxxxxxx forecast models. Part of the task should address knowledge transfer on assimilation techniques between the meteorological and oceanographic communities; Secure good linkage between the Copernicus Requirement web portal and the WMO Rolling Requirement Review system OSCAR; Actively engage in a dialogue with individual H2020 research projects that focus on design of observations systems, the G7 process etc. to ensure that Copernicus requirements are properly taken into account in the planning a design of observations systems; Star...
Summary of Recommendations. The audit findings and recommendations are detailed in Appendix A together with the management action plan and implementation timetable. A summary of these recommendations by priority is outlined below. Priority H M L Total Finding1: Personnel costs have been incorrectly calculated. (O) Risk Individual personnel costs being recharged to the project did not accurately reflect the actual costs being incurred by the Health Board. Documentary evidence for the calculations used was not available and thus could not be agreed by Internal Audit. Inaccurate calculation of individual personnel costs will result in inaccurate grant claims being made.
Summary of Recommendations. The following is a summary of measures recommended for maintaining or improving the performance of mitigation features and other habitats at Stonebrae in 2017. Mitigation Seasonal Wetlands • Continue to monitor and document the effects of precipitation levels in 2017 on vegetation and hydrology. • Continue of mowing/grazing and spraying of Xxxxxxx grass within the mitigation wetlands and prescribe additional treatments as necessary. • Expand invasive plant species control efforts for problematic species such as stinkwort (Dittrichia graveolens) in wetland areas and fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), bull thistle (Cirsium vulgare), Italian thistle (Carduus pycnocephalus) and milk thistle (Silybum marianum) in upland areas. Riparian Enhancement/Channel Restoration • Monitor riparian plantings and biotechnical structures within riparian areas. Augment riparian plantings to promote woody riparian vegetation establishment as needed. • Employ electric fencing as warranted to protect riparian areas if livestock are grazed outside of the standard grazing season allowed in the RMP. • Implement and monitor restoration of the eroded riparian Reach C East (C2a-d) below the City’s 1530 water tank outfall.
