Perspectives on Biotechnology and Biosafety in Uganda
Nyiira, Z.M.
Abstract
International efforts aimed at the application of biotechnology and biosafety are underway. Inevitably, Uganda is part of this effort. However, the country is contstrained by inadequate financial and human resource capacity to foster her vision and strengthen institutional structures to fully benefit from the impact of biotechnology research and development. Uganda realized, however, that she has to apply science and technology in order to gain a competitive edge in trade, commerce and industry and an admirable standard of living in the region.
