A good source on Science for Development


Click here to see a good 4 minute video on Science for Development. You can also download a related book on the subject (free) written by Sir Gordon Conway and Professor Jeff Waage. Conway has been Chief Scientific Advisor for the UK's Department for International Development (DfID), President of the Rockefeller Foundation, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Sussex and Chair of the Institute for Development Studies. I had the good fortune to see him discuss the book earlier this year at the World Bank, and to review the book. It is worth your attention!
