Light touch means test
Light touch in this context means that the performance agreement should not cover the entire Research Organisation with all its activities but focus on one or several strategic projects focusing on well defined issues of institutional development. The rationale for this ‘light touch’ performance agreement with a 5% share in the funding system is that principals (providers/ministries) and agents (Research Organisations) are new to this instrument. This low share will give Research Organisations and ministries an opportunity to learn and introduce a cultural change, while not risking too much.
