RECORDS OF
In the late 1980s PLAN began to decentralize the administration of its field operations, moving the management of program activities from International Headquarters to a series of regional offices located closer to the field offices and programs they were to manage. Each regional office is managed by a regional director who has overall responsibility for the administration of field offices and programs in the region. The Regional Office of South Asia (ROSA), established in 1988, evolved from PLAN's partnership with non-governmental agencies in India where the regional headquarters was initially located. Now located in Colombo, Sri Lanka, ROSA is responsible for the administration of field offices and programs in Bangladesh, India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. The records in this series document the establishment of the regional office, interaction between regional office and field office staff, and interaction between regional office and International Headquarters staff. Included are correspondence, memos, annual field office program reports (both hard copy and floppy disk), audit reports, quarterly reports, grant proposals, budgets, SAGE reports, and strategic plans for future programming. The records are arranged alphabetically by the name of the country/field office, subject, or type of record and chronologically within folders. Records relating to the creation of the Regional Office of South Asia can also be found on microfilm at the end of the collection.
