Your Excellencies,
There is a general consensus that science, technology and innovation are at the heart of development, and that investment in this sphere is critical to ensuring long-term growth. To this end, in 2014, African Heads of State and Government adopted the Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy for Africa 2014-2024, (STISA 2024), as a framework for S&T and innovation development in the Member States.
