SAASTA

The South African Agency for Science and Technology Advancement aims to advance public awareness, appreciation and engagement of science, engineering and technology in South Africa. SAASTA is a business unit of the National Research Foundation.

Scope of activities
• Building the quantity and quality of mathematics and science outputs at school level (developing SET
  human capital)
• Raising the general interest in, engagement and appreciation of the public (and especially poorer
  communities) for the benefit of science (strengthening the SET culture)
• Communicating science to the South African citizenry (bringing science and scientists closer to civil
  society).
