What to watch out for
• A tendency towards encyclopedic wish list in agenda formulation
• insufficient appreciation of the institutional and political realities through which reform initiatives have to be carried forward
• over-focusing on what does not work while ignoring what does work, and,
• a lack of clarity as to where the agenda best interfaces with goals.
