dc.description.abstractThis report highlights issues in Senegal with regard to science granting councils. Policy makers and politicians need to complete the formulation and adoption of the anticipated national science, technology and innovation (STI) policy, and to further emphasise the role of STI for socioeconomic development and transformation. Efforts are needed in articulating specific goals and allocation of funding. As it stands, the majority of funding for research (STI and R&D) is from the government. The number of researchers has increased in 2020 to 22,185 compared to 14,335 in 2017. However, the number of full-time researchers remains small.en
