teaching capacity in the inter-disciplinary field of STS at African institutions. At the recent
meetings of the network in Johannesburg, members of STS Africa resolved to encourage this
project ofinstitutionalization by calling for formal affiliation by units based at universities on
the African continent, and by those based at universities around the world with a strong
interest in African research and research development.
