6th Annual Conference of the Faculty of Science and Technology

The national, regional and international experiences of the recent past including the pandemic and economic woes afflicting humanity necessities the need for research to urgently contribute to societal resilience and sustainability of all spheres which support welfare and ensure a brighter future. Measurable socio-economic development and attainment of SDGs remains an elusive dream until new knowledge translates into resilient socio-economic welfare support systems. We must learn how to do things much better, to thrive and increase our safety nets during good times and able to sail through difficulties of the future.

There are many recent experiences pointing to us that we must make a paradigm shift to sail through challenges. We need to appraise how our utilization science and research outputs may guide in the application of knowledge for resilience and sustainability. Are we upholding good scientific disciplines, for example scientific leadership, championing innovativeness in research, applicability and working towards legacy to the benefit of present and future generations? Addressing these issues should be the core focus of your papers, posters and exhibitions which you are invited to present during the Faculty of Science and Technology Research Week 2023 conference.
