English term or phrase: that it arose
The accompanying draft WHO research strategy noted that it arose from a request from the World Health Assembly for the Director-General to produce a strategy for “the management and organization of research activities within WHO” – i.e. also principally an inward-looking perspective.

Does "it" refer to "to produce"?

Is "in" missing at the beginning of this sentence?

Thank you for your help!
