Second Stage:
Develop a five-year strategic plan. An official visit to the country to have IIASA Director General and CEO and NMO Chair formally sign the plan.
Third Stage:
After two and a half years, communicate on progress, any changes, and agree on a modified plan, if necessary. Staff level visit to the country to discuss the plan and potentially host a joint IIASA-NMO event.
Fourth Stage: Review strategic plan, including progress, achievements, and uncompleted items. Begin process to formalize the next five-year strategic plan.
