- Description
- Several countries on the African continent recognize that a transition to a knowledge-based economic model would stimulate growth and enable scientific independence. Investing in new knowledge would drive the formation of highly qualified professionals and the use of advanced technologies, triggering in return positive economic trends. Importantly, a knowledge-based economy that values the impact of science on society would help reversing the migration of skilled workers and lead to brain gain.
