International Programs, LSU AgCenter
Strategic partnerships have become central in modern development efforts worldwide. Foreseeing this trend and need, International Programs has developed several strategic partnerships within the United States and with institutions, universities, government agencies and the private sector in targeted countries. For example, International Programs partnered with leading cold chain experts in 2001 for the successful implementation of the Partnerships for Food Industry Development program. Strategic partnerships are also important in competing for, receiving awards and implementing U.S. foreign assistance programs. International Programs has emphasized strategic partnerships with the U.S. private sector, institutions and universities overseas with potential for two-way exchange and specific agencies of the U.S. government such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Further, ties with individual researchers, organizations and governments allow for a more-internationalized university community, which contributes to more comprehensive agricultural research and extension programs for the state of Louisiana and provides opportunities to promote Louisiana agricultural products abroad.
