Young Physicists Forum and the Importance for Education and Capacity Development for Africa

Higher education and advanced scientific research lead to social, economic, and political development of any country. All developed societies like the current 2022 G7 countries: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, and the US have all not only heavily invested in higher education but also in advanced scientific research in their respective countries. Similarly, for African countries to develop socially, economically, and politically, they must follow suit by massively investing in higher education and local scientific research.
