[NA-Discuss] Fw: Due Diligence complete- Regional Advice requested ALS applicant "(170) University Community Partnership for Social Action Research"

[Bob Bruen]

Hi Alan,

Is there a requirement stating that members of an organization must be 
citizens of the Region at a minumum level to be permitted to be an ALS in 
that Region?

Or is it that some measurement of control must be exercised from within 
the Region?

I can understand the reasoning to have an ALS be part of the Region, but 
it seems counter intuitive to keep some international organizations from 
be members of a RALO. In some cases, international can still mean within a 
particular Region, but in other cases not.

               thanks, bob
