Abstract

The title of my presentation today was not selected by me, it was chosen by the conference Committee. In deciding to include the word “challenge” in the title, I wonder if the organisers were conscious of the di tionary definition of the word challenge and / or had a foreknowledge of the problems that were encountered throughout this project?

My dictionary defines the word CHALLENGING as:-

  • * A call to engage in a contest or fight!

  • * An act or statement likely to produce conflict or confrontation !

  • * A demand for an explanation or justification !

  • * The quality of requiring full of use of ones abilities, energy and resources — difficult but stimulating !
