Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The decentralized approach involves delegating the design and implementation of research activities to specific countries, while only providing a final report to headquarters. This allows for more local control and tailoring of the research to each country's specific needs, while still allowing for a central oversight and coordination. The other options, top-down and centralized, involve more control and direction from headquarters, while coordinated does not specify a clear distribution of responsibilities.
