International Conference on “Social and Cultural Nexus of Science and Technology Development (SCST)”

Organized by the National Science Foundation of Sri Lanka,   the conference on ‘Social and Cultural Nexus of Science and Technology Development (SCST)’ will be held from 29-30 August 2019 in Colombo. Science and Technology (S&T) development has vastly induced the development of socio- economic factors in the world. Many developed as well as developing countries have succeeded in this field and performing well in the world scenario. In fact, there is ample evidence that prove many social, psychological and cultural factors facilitate or narrow down S&T development in particular social and cultural contexts. The conference aims to bring in a corpus of multidisciplinary scholars to present their work on social and cultural aspects of science and technology development and to make sense of this complicated landscape. The outcomes of the conference will feed into the discourse on S&T development and policy analysis and programme development.
