2 INFORMATION GATHERING
On behalf of IUPAC approximately 40 government departments, donor
and development agencies active in the field of tertiary education
in Africa - with special reference to research and human resource
development in chemistry - were approached through personalized letters
for information (See Addendum A). Not
all of them responded. Many indicated a broad involvement in the basic
sciences, including chemistry.
Furthermore, a study of the extensive literature was undertaken and
relevant statistical data on the sciences and chemistry in Africa
collected. The overview was further enriched through extensive input
by chemists from Africa.
