Our Background

The Department of Science and Technology (DST) takes the view that some of the complex social and development challenges that the country faces can best be addressed through collective and innovative efforts of multiple stakeholders that include: government; business; higher education institutions (HEIs); and civil society.

The DST argues that equal and fair partnership between HEIs and communities i.e., community-university partnerships, is an effective vehicle for solving problems, facilitating development, sharing lessons, generating knowledge and adopting new techniques and innovations.
