Awards issued prior to january 20, 2025, were funded under previous administrations and may not reflect the priorities and policies of the current administration.** the 2023 host institution renewal facilitates continued efforts to provide new technologies and principles to amplify agricultural resiliency through the various western sare funding programs. Attention to goals described in this POW will bolster most of the priorities of the 2023-2026 USDA science and research strategy for cultivating scientific innovation. The first steps are to rewrite the various regional calls for proposals (cfps) to broaden the scope of submitted proposals, leverage the strengths of the administrative council, and finalize the regional strategic plan. In FY 2024 the administrative council (AC) will vote on a slate of nominees to have a full AC. In a parallel action, the administrative council subcommittee has received feedback from the AC and will update the strategic plan draft for review during the summer 2024 meeting. These updates will help develop a technical review panel to identify the most meritorious proposals. The approved strategic plan coupled with the expanded network of educators generated through the second bpass conference will sketch out a roadmap to reach more localities and individuals with our programs.
