To develop and implement a performance framework, tools and instruments for STI management.
There is general ineffectiveness in the coordination of the national STI system, leading to inefficient resource utilisation. Furthermore, there is a lack of adequate information to facilitate regional and international benchmarking and track the implementation of STI activities. Consequently, under this plan, an understanding of the utilisation of resources in the STI sector and its capacity to contribute to national development will be critical. A framework to collect and disseminate information on the resources employed by the sector and their effectiveness will be put in place. It will focus on timely tracking of the implementation of various programmes/initiatives under this plan which will aim at realising its overall objectives. The coordination of STI activities will also seek to leverage the activities of international Organisations working in the country for the furtherance of national STI objectives.
