‘DISSEMINATION OF THE FINDINGS FOR THE NATIONAL RESEARCH FORESIGHT EXERCISE’



I express my gratitude to the Manchester Institute of Innovation Research for extending their expert assistance in this important and challenging exercise.  This is another exercise which my Ministry has entrusted to the Mauritius Research Council in order to map out a medium to long term research and innovation strategy for Mauritius within the existing capabilities to meet current and future challenges. The main aim of the National Research Foresight Exercise (NRFE) is to map out a medium longer term research and innovation strategy for Mauritius. This involves links between different scientific disciplines, between research producers and users, and between the public, private and civil society sectors. I wish the participants fruitful discussions.
