The objectives of SGCI are to strengthen the ability of particpating SGCs to 1) manage
research; 2)design and monitor research programmes, and to formulate and implement
policies based on the use of robust science, technology and innovation (STI) indicators;
3) support knowledge transfer to the private sector; and; 4) establish partnerships
with one another, and with other science system actors. The implementation of these
objectives is achieved through regional training courses, individualised on-site training
sessions, on-line training, webinars and, collaborative research. The SGCI works with
15 councils in Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Cote d’ Ivoire, Burkina Faso,
Senegal, Ghana, Zambia, Mozambique, Botswana, Malawi, Namibia and Zimbabw
