In this audio interview, Romain Murenzi, TWAS executive director, encourages African countries to invest in science education and science literacy in their nations.
Echoing the calls from IAP's recent Beijing Declaration, Murenzi noted that: "If young children are taught about science, the environment, mathematics and critical thinking, that will change dramatically the way you do business... Critical thinking is essential, and science gives you that."
