NETWORKING S&T INSTITUTIONS
The NCST coordinates bimonthly meetings with Jamaica’s Research and Development (R&D) and Testing Institutions. These meetings facilitate dialogue among the academic and public and private sector S&T Institutions to solve problems, share information on work programmes and develop collaborative programmes for national development.
Comprehensive information is currently available in a resource book on R&D Organizations in Jamaica, which provides information on the programmes undertaken by various public sector agencies, as well as the available testing facilities and resources for S&T.
