摘要

The importance of science and technology (S&T) in national development can not be underscored, as many, especially the developed countries have achieved the height development through aggressive development and application of S&T to their economies. Consequently both developing and developed countries have put in place mechanisms to exploit the potential of S&T. However the differences between the two are the level resources commitment to S&T as well as mechanisms established in these countries to paddle S&T development. Equally important is how these mechanisms and the general S&T environment are facilitated by the government through an effective S&T policy making. The United Kingdom (UK) has established strategic institutions that are designed to improve S&T policy in general and communication between scientists and policy decision makers in particular, as well as building capacity of the politicians (members of parliament) in scientific issues. The paper reviews the S&T institutional framework in the UK and general support for S&T development. The author argues that Ghana and other African countries should design similar institutions such as chief scientific advisor at the highest level of government, establishment of special body to support parliament in S&T issues (but probably with different priorities) in order to effectively mobilize S&T for development.
