Â
Inadequate training of scientists in Egypt's educational, scientific, and research institutions is a key factor that informs the modest -and often unsatisfactory quality- levels of science productions in Egypt. There is a pressing need, therefore, to enhance the training of young scientists; and, equally, to promote their science and technology related innovations. Strong and successful Egyptian scientists will contribute to the country's positive development.
Mission
To empower youth, develop skills and create better linkages between industry and research, the Young Innovators’ Awards (YIA) Program aims at stimulating the culture of Research & Development (R&D) in Egypt through providing young Egyptian scientists with multiple opportunities to engage in R&D. The immediate goal is to help graduating students gain access to training, funding, information, equipment, and supplies that may better meet the needs of their research projects at Egyptian national universities
