Webinar Recording: Best Practices for Financial Reporting to Funders

As CARTA continues to decentralize research capacity strengthening activities to partner institutions, there have been delays in accounting for funds sub-awarded to partner institutions which risks jeopardizing future funding of CARTA program.
