Definition

A policy or theme addressed by the activity. A text description of the theme appears in the content, and a formal identifier appears in the @ref attribute. The @vocabulary attribute can also help to segment the markers into separate vocabularies. This element can be repeated for each policy marker. For the value of the @code attribute, see http://iatistandard.org/codelists/policy_marker
