Current Strategic Plan

CCRIF Strategic Plan 2009/10 to 2011/12

CCRIF’s Strategic Plan 2009/10 to 2011/12 was developed during the 2009/10 fiscal year and revised in the 2010/11 fiscal year. This strategic plan was developed from the results of two strategic planning sessions – the first one in 2009 and the second in 2010. The first session involved a high level of visioning which enabled us to develop our vision and mission as well as the core strategic framework for CCRIF. The second session was designed to review the strategic plan and the organisation’s strategic framework. This document represents the revised strategic plan for CCRIF.
