LIBSENSE fits into the UK’s vision for open Science, Technology and Innovation (ST&I)

The Deputy Development Director at the British High Commission in Nigeria, Susan Mshana,  says the LIBSENSE program aligns with the UK government’s vision for Science, Technology & Innovation (ST&I) and its commitment to open science.

Speaking at the 8th LIBSENSE Open Science Symposium in Abuja, Ms Mshana stressed in her opening address that the UK government has made ST&I and open science a central pillar of its policy, recognising their potential to uplift the world’s poorest and promote shared prosperity.
