Coordinator
Abstract:
The role of the Coordinator is to ensure that the objectives of the
UPTAP programme are achieved, to provide support for the individual
projects and to disseminate the findings of the programme as widely
as possible to academic and user constituencies. The Coordinator is
responsible for arranging conferences, workshops and other events
that bring UPTAP researchers together to discuss their work and to
present their findings. A budget has been set aside for encouragement
of collaboration and communication with user groups and a communications
strategy has been produced which includes the preparation and distribution
of UPTAP Research Findings documents for each project.
