Moving Environmental Health Forward: Insights and Opportunities. Strategic Planning Stakeholder Community Workshop Report, July 12-14, 2011.

摘要

NIEHS is engaging in a strategic planning process to set the Institute's scientific and governance direction for the next five years (2012-2017). This report captures the work done during one phase of the broader year-long strategic planning process: the 2011 NIEHS Strategic Planning Stakeholder Community Workshop, that was held 1pm July 12th through 1pm July 14th at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The Stakeholder Community Workshop process included identifying key stakeholders to be invited, with invitations going to a mixture of scientists, public health policy, regulatory experts, management of scientific research , communication experts, and non-scientific staff. To make the most of the time and the expertise of the people at the meeting, the strategic planning core group chose to use Open Space Technology as the meeting method, and to engage Dalar International Consultancy, Inc. to assist in planning and facilitating the meeting.
