Angeles declaration: public-private partnerships for dissemination of research outputs to end-users

Abstract

The Workshop on Public-Private Partnerships for the Delivery of Tilapia Genetic Research Outputs to Philippine End-users was held in Angeles City, Philippines during 25-27 June 2003 to review and improve the protocol of public- private partnerships in disseminating tilapia genetic research outputs to end-users and formulate recommendations with implications on policy. Thirty-seven participants representing various stakeholder groups participated in the workshop. The participants discussed and evaluated the effectiveness and efficiency of various distribution and dissemination systems; and identified and analyzed issues, problems and constraints for delivery and uptake of genetics-based technologies and their outputs that need to be addressed by relevant agencies/institutions. Based on the deliberations, the participants of the Workshop adopted the Angeles declaration.
