Synopsis

In his opening remarks at Science Form South Africa 2024, Minister Nzimande launched the first report of the South African Public Relationship with Science Survey. Nzimande said “Through our 2019 White Paper on Science, Technology, and Innovation, with the policy intent to “support a science-literate and science-aware society”, we committed to creating suitable metrics to gauge our progress in relation to science engagement. This is why we asked our entity, the Human Sciences research Council to independently conduct the South African Public Relationship with Science Survey. The survey seeks to enlighten us on how we are faring as a country in the area of science engagement and accordingly, makes a number of important observations”.
