This evening’s homework

by SophiaZoe on October 21, 2008

My thanks to the STEPScentre for passing along a treasure-trove of reports on avian influenza and a potential pandemic, focusing on the global response. Their AI portal (here) contains links (towards the bottom) to their reports, freely available and licensed under Creative Commons (with restrictions).

I’ve only this evening started my first report, however, thus far I’m impressed and wanted to pause a moment to put the link up for those who wish to do the reading for themselves. First impressions: I’ve been handed a fresh perspective that doesn’t pull any punches. Assessments on “the good, the bad, and the ‘are you on crack?’” [my phrase, not the report's] seem presented with an honesty I do not often see on the issues.

Now, I’m off to my reading assignments…
