American countries 'must commit to S&T'
Abstract:
But he said COMCYT focuses too much on writing documents and reports, rather than action.
Ventura proposed that COMCYT set up centres of excellence to address regional problems such as using biotechnology in small scale agricultural and food production, using nanotechnology to produce clean drinking water and developing new materials for better and more affordable housing.
