Science and Technology: key to our national development
At a time when Nigeria is engaging in Vision 2020 development projects aimed at accelerating economic development to propel the country to the league of advanced nations by the year 2020, it is pertinent to highlight the role of science and technology in achieving this goal.
Science may be defined as “cumulative verifiable and communicative knowledge”. Pure science is the investigation of nature to satisfy the need to know while applied science is the application of pure science to some practical human need.
Technology on the other hand is a body of knowledge and devices by which man masters his environment. It is not synonymous with applied science, being more empirical in its approach to solving problems. The three major technologies – agriculture, medicine and engineering – all made substantial progress before they were wedded to science. Fundamentally, technology is an extension of man’s capacity to see further and clearer, hear more, travel faster and for greater distances etc. Science and technology have therefore been key drivers for growth and sustainable social development and transformation of nations, leading to industrialisation. (…)
Nigeria has a proliferation of Universities, and other tertiary institutions that can form the basis for development of science and technologies at different levels to provide support for the take off and sustainance of an industrial revolution. However, the country must be prepared to address specific obvious loopholes in the educational and industrial systems. For example, there is no foundation established for the development of science and technology.
Developed nations in the West have set the pace with about 10 per cent of their countries’ GDP set aside by law for development of science and technology. Asian countries such as South Korea have followed suit and set aside over 10 per cent of their GDP for science and technology. In Nigeria, inspite of a proliferation of Universities, Polytechnics and Research Institutes less than one per cent of GDP is allocated for funding of science and technology.
According to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO 2007), there were 882,715 patent applications from China, 5,220,327 from the USA and only 699 from Nigeria between 1985- 2006. It has been shown that there is a definite correlation between funding of research and development and progress in science and technology. (…)

ISM Principles of Sustainability and Social Responsibility
(* ISM: Institute of Supply Management)
ISM firmly believes the supply management profession is a strategic contributor in the development and implementation of sustainability and social responsibility programs and behavior. Supply professionals are in a unique, critical position to impact the global supply chain and therefore should supplement their organization's work in sustainability and social responsibility by promoting sustainability and social responsibility through leadership and participation on appropriate committees, boards and panels of governmental and nongovernmental organizations.
Creating principles across social, industry, public and private, profit and nonprofit, political and country boundaries is both a challenge and an opportunity. This diversity presents a particular challenge in the area of sustainability and social responsibility, which does not have a lengthy history resulting in the development of well-known and universally acceptable best practices. Laws, regulations, trade agreements, customs and practices pertinent to sustainability and social responsibility must also be considered in the development and implementation of business strategies, policies and procedures. In addition, the advent of new technologies that enable a "virtual" world influence the evolution of sustainability and social responsibility in a supply chain context.
Principles: Anti-corruption; Diversity and inclusiveness- workforce and supply base; Environment; Ethics and Business Conduct; Financial Integrity and Transparency; Global Citizenship; Health and Safety; Human Rights; Labor Rights; and Sustainability.

Text VII
The following document from the Earth Summit 2002 illustrates the link between S&T (Science&Technology) and Sustainable
Development: Science and Technology as a Foundation for Sustainable Development
Why is science and technology essential for sustainable development?
Sustainable development is probably the most daunting challenge that humanity has ever faced, and achieving it requires that the fundamental issues be addressed immediately at local, regional and global levels. At all scales, the role of science and technology is crucial; scientific knowledge and appropriate technologies are central to resolving the economic, social and environmental problems that make current development paths unsustainable. Bridging the development gap between the North and the South, and alleviating poverty to provide a more equitable and sustainable future for all, requires novel integrated approaches that fully incorporate existing and new scientific knowledge. The Scientific and Technological (S&T) community can make a leading contribution to tackling major problems identified in Sections III and V of the Millennium Declaration - "Freedom from want" and "Sustaining our future". These issues include: i) fighting against disease; ii) population growth and urbanization; iii) the digital/information divide; iv) coping with climate change; v) confronting the water crisis; vi) defending the soil; vii) preserving forests, fisheries and biodiversity and viii) building a new ethic of global stewardship. Whatever the cultural, geographical, socio-economic and environmental setting, a strong partnership between the S&T community and other members of civil society, the private sector and governments is a fundamental prerequisite for sustainable development.

“ Systematic process of (1) a desired future, and translating this vision into broadly defined goals or objectives and a sequence of steps to achieve them. In contrast to long-term planning (which begins with the current status and lays down a path to meet estimated future needs), strategic planning begins with the (2) and works backward to the current (3) . At every stage of long-range planning the planner asks, "What must be done here to (4) the next (higher) stage?" At every stage of strategicplanning the planner asks, "What must be done at the (5) (lower) stage to reach here?" Also, in contrast to tactical planning (which focuses at achieving narrowly defined interim objectives with predetermined means), strategic planning looks at the (6) picture and is flexible in choice of its means.”

Leia o Texto III para responder à questão.
Texto III
“Oficiais” ou não, a imagem dos insurgentes sofreu mais reveses nestes dias. O historiador e politólogo belga Pierre Piccinin e o jornalista italiano Domenico Quirico, libertados no domingo 8 após cinco meses de cativeiro nas mãos das Brigadas Al-Farouk (“islâmicos moderados”) revelaram ter sofrido torturas nas mãos de seus algozes e ouvido uma conversa por Skype deles com supostos membros do Exército Livre, na qual admitiam ter realizado o ataque químico em busca de uma intervenção ocidental. Agnes Mariam el-Salib, madre superiora de um convento católico sírio, apareceu na mídia russa para afirmar que os vídeos do ataque com gás foram encenados. A revista alemã Bild revelou várias mensagens interceptadas pela espionagem alemã nos últimos quatro meses, nas quais militares sírios pedem permissão para usar armas químicas várias vezes, com respostas sempre negativas. A reportagem sugere que os comandantes as usaram sem autorização de Assad, mas há outras possibilidades.

Text VIII
The intrinsic connection between research, innovation and growth
Since the last spending review, the Government has put nearly half a billion pounds of new capital into science and technology, into initiatives such as: the Institute of Animal Health; high-powered computing and e-infrastructure; and the commercialization of graphene. It has been hugely supportive of science and research but, of course, against the background of a very difficult economic and fiscal position.
How has that investment been justified? Well, the UK has to take account of what is happening in the rest of the world. There is a great deal in the news about the economies of China and India, but less of Russia, Mexico, Indonesia and others which are also expanding. There has been an acceptance on the part of Treasury that even in the current economic circumstances it is vitally important to invest in science and technology.
We are not alone: in the USA President Obama has singled out research and innovation as key areas in which to invest. On the other side of the world, China is making huge investments in this area. Underlying these decisions is a substantial evidence base relating economic growth to investment in R&D and innovation.
R&D is an important part of the wider story. Looking at global investment, this is increasing at a rapid rate in China and the USA but not so fast in the UK (…). So, is this a disaster? Well, even if in recent years this country has not kept pace with others, one proxy for output (citations or the most cited citations) per pound invested, shows that the UK has been remarkably productive. A priority now is to sustain that in the face of the financial investment being made elsewhere.
Innovation
Now while science and research are concerned with a great deal more than short term, economic growth, for Government the economy – including growth and jobs – is a primary focus. Innovation is a key driver of our policies. When enterprises are engaged in any one of the following they are described as ‘innovation active’:
• introducing a new or significantly improved product (good or service) or process;
• investing or engaging in:
– internal R&D, training, design
– acquisition of capital goods for the purpose of making new products or improving processes
– acquisition of external knowledge;
• engaging in development projects that have neither been completed nor abandoned.
Innovation does not always occur in high-tech areas – there is a great deal in engineering-based manufacturing, but also in retail and distribution as well as construction (…). Engagement is not purely concerned with research: there is a whole host of ways in which business engages with academia and it may be through meetings, joint research or consultancy. Indeed, there is a whole ‘ecosystem’ of inter-relationships between universities, businesses and those who fund research (the Research Councils, Technology Strategy Board, etc). (...)
