Independent Assessment of the Agricultural Technical Cooperation Working Group and High Level Policy Dialogue on Agricultural Biotechnology
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND KEY RECOMMENDATIONS
Dramatic increases in global food commodity prices, predictions of future food shortages, climate variability, changes in the attitude of the global investment community to Asia, and a wealth of agri-technology opportunities are contributing to an increasing public and private sector interest in agriculture within and across APEC Economies. Through the Agricultural Technical Cooperation Working Group (ATCWG) and the High Level Policy Dialogue on Agricultural Biotechnology (HLPDAB), APEC has a unique opportunity to establish itself as the facilitator of the open and free trade of new agri-technologies and enabler of innovative agriindustries across the Asia-Pacific region.
To capitalise on these opportunities, the Consultant recommends that each fora adopts a primary focus on increasing the efficacy of its strategic program, and that this should become the primary driver of their mandates. This will require each fora to establish a strong organisational and project-based learning culture that encourages and fully embraces entrepreneurial perspectives on technology development and deployment across the APEC region.
This independent assessment found that both the ATCWG and HLPDAB are, for the most part, meeting the objectives of APEC with both having clear and distinctive roles and expertise required for delivery of APEC goals and priorities. As such, a merger of the two is not supported. This issue should be resolved by the SCE swiftly such that each fora can continue to develop strategies that enhance technical-policy linkages for inclusion in future work plans. The Consultant found that debate over this issue has been counterproductive and was identified as one of the biggest issues affecting fora performance. Further, the majority of the Economies surveyed have no appetite for merging.
