ISESCO Science and Technology Prize Guide

The ISESCO Science and Technology Prize Guide is published by ISESCO Centre for Promotion of Scientific Research (ICPSR). It aims to strengthen Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) in ISESCO Member States, by focusing on the main three priority areas identified within ISESCO Strategy for Science, Technology and Innovation in the Islamic World: namely, to push forward the boundaries of human knowledge, to respond in the best manner to global challenges, and to expand the scope of technology.

The main objective of the Guide is to highlight the important work done by ISESCO in the areas of science, technology and innovation (STI). It is also a demonstration of how ISESCO values the tremendous contribution of the prize-winners to scientific and technological progress in ISESCO Member states. One of the valuable merits of the Guide is that it also provides a stimulus to focus on research issues and questions that have a tangible socioeconomic impact.

The guide is equally meant to develop awareness of the role of Science and Technology innovations in helping humanity meet the myriad of challenges associated with climate change, biodiversity loss, natural disasters and their risks, natural resource management, and pandemic disease prevention and control.
