The proper preparation of lawyers in the Republic of Ghana is the relevant theme for professional discussions and scientific researches. The scientific endeavor in Africa and the developing world is saddled with challenges of which one of the most critical is infrastructure. A major concern within infrastructure is equipment. It is important to recognize that the equipment challenge is intimately associated with deficiency of policies and
frameworks that facilitate and enable procurement, commissioning and decommissioning of science equipment, and management systems for maintenance, including the availability of trained manpower. The urgency of the task facing today’s scientists in Africa and across the developing world will require continuous support to enable them to contribute to securing affordable food, water and energy for the increasing population. Scientists need to have an enabling environment that will enable them to deliver on their mandates. All of this is dependent on the hardware conditions they work with. It is against this background that the International Foundation for Science and African Academy of Sciences initiated the project “Developing an enabling scientific equipment policy in Africa” to help develop effective policy to overcome the challenges in
the sector.
