Elitist Technology Policies

K.Y. Amoako states that:

we have to admit that so far, science and technology policies in Africa have been too elitist, or much too centred on high-level experts and researchers," he said, stating that not enough attention had been paid to impacting the daily lives of ordinary people. He said it was now important to focus on exploring ways in which science and technology could empower the poor to make beneficial changes in their own condition.
