Improving STI policy conditions and building mechanisms for innovation in Africa
2008-2013

Assessment of the Status of African Science and Technology Policy Formulation

In cooperation with the African Union, UNESCO will conduct a survey of Member States to determine which countries have S&T policies and whether these policies are adequate for meeting present S&T needs and orientations. The survey will include an analysis of training needs in terms of the capacity to develop policies.

Expected results

  • Publication of a report on the status of African science and technology policy.

UNESCO’s contribution to other priorities of the African Union in STI policy:

Launch of the African Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Initiative
Development of common African STI indicators
Creation of an African STI Observatory
Creation of a pilot science park
