A performance measurement strategy has been developed for the COSPAS-SARSAT Secretariat Contribution Program, which provides... the tools to measure and evaluate the effectiveness and relevancy of funding the COSPAS-SARSAT Secretariat. Specifically, the evaluation will focus on the Canadian delegation's use of the Secretariat services for the coordination of COSPAS-SARSAT activities. It should be recognized that COSPAS-SARSAT has acceptable governance and review mechanisms that can reliably allow the Government of Canada to assess the indirect benefits of its participation. 1, record 1, English, - COSPAS%2DSARSAT%20Secretariat%20Contribution%20Program

Terrorism, unlike guerrilla warfare, does not attack military or government centers with the desire to take power. Rather terrorism targets unsuspecting victims to publicize their cause and create panic among the strong. The terrorist hopes that by randomly attacking "off limit" targets, it will create a fear so intolerable that despite power the victim will surrender to the terrorists’ demands. Thus, terrorism is an indirect strategy to accomplish direct and specific goals. 1, record 2, English, - indirect%20strategy

Indirect Purchase is the purchase by a third party of institutional training specifically designed to meet the particular needs of an employer, an organization or a specific economic sector. Such training is purchased from either a public institution or, where applicable, an organization other than a Public Authority. These activities are generally directed at workers who are employed and are planned by the joint committee and, where applicable, coordinating groups.(Canadian Jobs Strategy, Operational Procedures, chap. 2. 04, App. D, p. 3). 1, record 4, English, - indirect%20purchase
