It is possible to catch up the frontiers of both Scientific Research and Sustainable Development together.

Today, WDS recognizes World Science Day for Peace and Development. By linking science more closely with society, the day aims to ensure that citizens are kept informed of developments in science. Read more highlights below: https://lnkd.in/gziME3U

📢Thrilled by the insights from #AfricanResearchNexus! 🌍 This initiative inspires me to dedicate myselves to advancing the #SustainableDevelopmentGoals(SDGs) and inspiring young generations, particularly by bolstering #female #academics.Let us collaborate, united, we're forging a luminous tomorrow through #ScientificResearch 🌟 Based on analaysis by #AfricanResearchNexus our fewer scientific researchers contributed to #SDG2; #SDG3; #SDG6; #SDG8;#SDG13; #SDG16. I appreciated the #anonymous reviewers and analyst🙏. Promise ✌️

🔬🌍Celebrating Science's Role in Shaping a Sustainable Future: World Science Day for Peace and Development. ✨ World Science Day for Peace and Development emphasizes science's impact on advancing global peace and sustainability.

A special recognition from the CIMUSET Award Committee is given to the book "Race and Sociocultural Inclusion in Science Communication – Innovation, Decolonisation, and Transformation," edited by Elizabeth Rasekoala. The book is deserving of special mention as it is groundbreaking and comprehensive approach to addressing the multifaceted issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion within the science communication field and thereby for science museums and science centres. One of the most commendable aspects of this book is its focus on bridging the Global North-South divide in science communication. By challenging Eurocentric perspectives and advocating for Afrocentric and other non-Western worldviews, the book paves the way for a more balanced and representative global narrative. This is crucial in an era where global challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic have underscored the importance of inclusive and equitable scientific discourse.

10 November. The Day aims to:Promote national and international solidarity for shared science between countries; Renew national and international commitment for the use of science for the benefit of societies; Draw attention to the challenges faced by science in raising support for the scientific endeavour

2.9% of Tri-Council funding goes to Colleges. Colleges and Institutes in Canada are an un-tapped resource for applied research and key to addressing the challenges related to productivity which are facing the Canadian economy. Research work done at Colleges is closely tied to community benefit. That can be industry related, but in the case of my own research, it can also be focused directly on social issues. Let's hope that the Tri-Council funding agencies recognize the systemic barriers to supporting research at Colleges and work with us to encourage the innovation that we and our students bring to our communities.

Our innovators of tomorrow must be unified to understand the variety of realities that exist in our world - enabling them with new perspectives to drive change. PJMF President Vilas Dhar recently joined Simran Mohnani, MEng AMIChemE for the 65th London International Youth Science Forum (LIYSF CIC), sharing expert insights with 500 students from 70 countries. A future where technology and society thrive together is near, and it is in the hands of our next generation of changemakers to make this a reality.
