The Approach. The objectives of ACP-EC development cooperation shall be pursued through integrated strategies that incorporate economic, social, cultural, environmental and institutional elements that must be locally owned. Cooperation shall thus provide a coherent enabling framework of support to the ACP’s own development strategies, ensuring complementarity and interaction between the various elements. In this context and within the framework of development policies and reforms pursued by the ACP States, ACP-EC cooperation strategies shall aim at:
The Approach. The Himalaya Foundation and Columbia University agree to collaborate to put in place a fellowship for graduates of National Taiwan University (hereafter “NTU”) who accept the offer of admission to the PhD program in Economics at Columbia University. The fellowship will be known as the Columbia-NTU Economics PhD Fellowship (hereafter, “the Fellowship”).
The Approach. A process to be compliant with regulatory authorities is not a trivial task to achieve. It requires a multidisciplinary approach drawing knowledge from several fields. A pro-active, flexible and evolving product development plan that integrates the activities of all relevant functions from process / analytical development, manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance and regulatory can help minimize unnecessary costs both in resources and time. Biotecnol’s emphasizes, early in the development of the process, the necessity for effective interaction with the chosen cGMP facility and CAL to ensure development of viable protocols for manufacturing and quality control. This interaction can only be achieved by effective and regular communication by telephone and meetings between responsible personnel. This can only be achieved by early and up front commitment of work to the chosen cGMP and CAL Development work at Biotecnol will generate the necessary, methodologies and SOP’s, in consultation with the cGMP facility and CAL, to ensure that the process and analytical methodologies can be rapidly transferred and effectively implemented. Work will be documented and reports compiled in line with an agreed work plan and the requirements for provision of information and data for preparation of the CMC, and other regulatory documentation.
