In recognition of the 10 year anniversary of ICRI, a decision was made during the ICRI General Meeting, Palau, October 2005 (ICRI GM Japan/Palau (1) 2005/8.0/1) to undertake and evaluate the Initiative: “ICRI members requested that the ICRI Secretariat initiate a review of the successes and failures of the past 10 years, so that future direction may benefit from past experience. As a result of this request the incoming ICRI Secretariat have proposed a ten-year review as the 3rd outcome of the Action Plan for consideration by the ICRI members at this meeting.”
