why 'dem'?

Yorkshireman Jul 30, 2014:

I understand it like this
"In addition to the partner at directorial level, the steering committee must embrace the planned bilateralised "natural resources initiative" of the Federal Ministry for Economic Co-operation and Development (BMZ) and the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) - similarly intervening at ministerial level - and the multilateral initiative of the World Bank."

Der Partner auf Direktorenebene ist wohl eine Person; die Rohstoffinitiative und das Vorhaben wären auf dem Konitee vertreten, und zwar wie?

Yorkshireman Jul 30, 2014:

So early in the morning! Great work! I'm just wondering whether it shouldn't have been "anschließen" rather than "einschließen", which could change things a little and, if I'm not mistaken, make "dem" fit quite well.

Right you are, Andrew ... ... and Johanna. I've not had my Ribena yet.

Helen Shiner Jul 29, 2014:

@Johanna Just a few typos....

Lancashireman Jul 29, 2014:

with Johanna

Johanna Timm, PhD Jul 29, 2014:

vielleicht so Das Steuerungskomitee soll, neben dem Partner auf Direktorenebene, die geplanten – ebenfalls im Ministerium intervenierenden – bilateralisierten 'Rohstoffinitiativen' des BMZ und der BGR und die multilateralen Vorhaben der Weltbank einschließen.
Wo ein Tippfehler ist...

Lancashireman Jul 29, 2014:

...in which case, Tony, multilateralen would have to be a typo for multilaterale

TonyTK Jul 29, 2014:

Has to be a typo ... ... for "das"
