Promoting science, technology and innovation for sustainable development in Africa : executive summary

This is a lesson in history that has direct implications for the future well-being of Africa, and it is a lesson that the continent ignores at its own peril – as the postcolonial history of Africa clearly and painfully reveals. Africa enters the 21st century facing monumental challenges to its survival and long-term sustainability. At the core of these challenges is the continent’s ability to master STI and to successfully apply these forces to address critical problems related to health, food, water and the environment.
