The Zambian government has started to review its national science and technology policy in order to make it more responsive to the country's goals.
The policy should, among other things, encourage the development and use of science and technology for economic development, according to science and technology minister Peter Daka. Daka spoke earlier this week during the opening of the governing council of the Center for Science and Technology of non-aligned and other developing countries.
Zambia's revised policy will lift the retirement age of science and technology experts in order to allow them to work longer and help the country's technological development. The current retirement age of science and technology experts in Zambia is 55, but the government wants to adjust the age requirement to above 70.
The new policy is also aimed at enhancing links among technology research institutes in Zambia, and cooperation between the institutions and the private and public sectors, in order to encourage demand-driven research and development.
"A team of experts have already started working on the new policy that will foster international linkages for enhanced technology in order to improve the country's science and technology research," Daka said.
For more than 15 years, science and technology development in Zambia has slowed following reduced government funding to institutions, coupled with poor remuneration and conditions of service for experts.
Daka said the government is now working on improving the conditions of service for science and technology experts and raising funding to science and technology institutions.
