The Department of Science and
Technology believes Africa has all the potential to be a global hotbed of
innovation.
This comes after Minister
Naledi Pandor spoke in London at a conference on higher education and science
innovation in Africa.
Ministerial Spokesperson Lunga
Ngqengelele said the Minister’s message was mainly that, Africa was ready for
business especially when it comes to science.
She said institutions must
stop looking at science in Africa as a basket case but, rather as an
opportunity.
The Minister urged the
conference delegates to invest more in Africa so that African scientists can
also be able to develop their skills, Ngqengelele added.
