Abstract

The African Union’s Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy for Africa 2024 (STISA-2024) places science, technology and innovation at the epicenter of Africa’s socio-economic development and growth. Four ‘pillars’ are considered conditions for success: building and/or upgrading research infrastructures; enhancing professional and technical competencies; promoting entrepreneurship and innovation; and providing an enabling environment for science, technology and innovation development in the African continent.
