In recent years，South African region southern Sahara faces a series of development challenges，Including high population growth、High poverty rate Company、Poor health, etc.。Researchers require a large number of excellent researchers to solve these problems，But the reality is，Local scientific research resources have been scarce。Now，More and more scholars have called for enhancing Africa's scientific research capabilities，To solve many social problems。For this，The reporter interviewed relevant scholars。

Researcher Oluwaseyi Somefun, a researcher at West Kaipu University in South Africa, said，The population in Africa, southern Sahara accounted for 13.5 % of the world's，But the region contributes to global research and output less than 1 %。The poverty lack of scientific research resources in Africa can be seen from this。

bet365 live casino games Samfan thinks，Africa can improve the output of research results and its release mode，to help young scholars build confidence，to reduce the outflow of talents in the region。But the African higher education course is not always able to provide sufficient guidance opportunities，This limits the development of young scholars with potential potential。In some areas，Scientific research ability construction will encounter other obstacles，Including the shortage of mentors、Mentor knowledge and skills limited、Poor scientific research atmosphere, etc.。

For this，In recent years，African Senior Research Training Alliance (Carta) set up a doctoral degree training research fund，to support local training programs，and carry out in -depth cooperation with global scholars。But in the alliance，Only 47 % of researchers can get the instructor's guidance。This shows a very common situation in Africa -many young scholars cannot find a suitable mentor，but cannot further advance scientific research。For this question，A study by the University of West bet365 live casino games Kaipu believes，It is necessary to enhance the "guidance power" in the African higher education and research system。where，The most important thing is to help young researchers find partners and outstanding mentors。

Researcher Kudus Adebayo, a researcher at the African Research Institute of Nigeria Ibanan University, told reporters，Some young scholars may not want to seek useful guidance for their professional development，A large part of the reason is that they lack understanding of the necessity and importance of guidance。He suggests，Young scholars must learn more network technology，and get related skills，Therefore, find a suitable mentor through the Internet。Current，More and more young researchers have realized，Appropriate mentor has an important role in promoting its career development。

　　Carry out international cooperation

It seems that Rifat Atun, a professor at Harvard University Global Health System,，The epidemic of new crown pneumonia will lead to "imbalance of power" among different countries' research institutions。He said，Some research institutions in African bet365 best casino games countries and other countries in the world are in a weakness in the imbalanced relationship between various aspects，and the new imbalance enables research institutions of high -income countries to occupy more scientific research resources，But the development opportunities of research institutions and personnel such as Africa and other backward areas。

Aton said，Take this epidemic as an example，More research in African countries is not only good for Africa，And has a vital role in global public health。He suggests，It should be led by local researchers to lead related research。But the economic crisis caused by the epidemic may lead to a reduction in local health research funds，It may also cause more countries to conduct closed management，and pay more attention to the local "self -sufficient"，This will further affect international cooperation in the field of scientific research。

Kevin Marsh, a professor at Oxford University School of Medicine, believes，From the historical point of view，The imbalance of many international relations reflects the structural consequences Bet365 app download of colonialism，Including funds、Unbalance of scientific special knowledge and decision -making center position。Actually，In the past few years，This situation has begun to change。Now，Many researchers in mainland Africa have begun to exercise autonomy and leadership。At least in terms of determining some local research priorities and funds in Africa，Decision Center is quietly changing。At the same time，More and more international collaborators recognize and support these changes。

Professor Salome Maswime, a professor at the University of Cape Town, South Africa, said，From the design phase of the scientific research project to the final completion，countries around the world can participate in horizontal cooperation in Africa。More from other countries around the world、Fair cooperation，It can improve the bet365 Play online games scientific research environment in Africa，and contribute to global scientific research。Current，Some positive changes have appeared，The scientific research ability of African research institutions is gradually increasing。The improved scientific research environment allows Africa to have more opportunities to use local resources to dominate local research，instead of becoming a "shortcut" for research by some high -income countries researchers for research。

Maswim thinks，With network communication technology accelerated in Africa，Local scientific research interaction is becoming more and more extensive，More young scholars improve their research capabilities through online education，More researchers have strengthened confidence to improve their own scientific research level。
