Why need domestic preparation
■The Evaluation covers a long time span and a thorough understanding of Chinese context are needed;
■There are no systematic evaluation reports on NSFC;
■Source materials are mostly in Chinese. Useful information needs to be selected from large amount of materials.
■Most workshops and interviews should be implemented by NCSTE.
