If a single word could sum up the focus of the world today, I think it must be “resources”. Our lives are dominated by the need for water, land, food, energy, minerals, health and other resources — and by our decisions on how to expend those resources through technology, medicine, transportation, governance, business, education, commerce and other sectors.
Research allows us to better understand a world that is being disrupted in many ways. Before Covid-19 struck we were seeing the effects of climate change, poverty and inequality and marginalisation. The fourth Industrial Revolution was already starting to change how we bank, shop, educate, travel, communicate and do business. Those innovations are the result of research.
I call this kind of result “disruptive excellence”. It is excellence because it delivers a high quality of work that creates new opportunities in a world that desperately needs to grow beyond the challenges we face today. It is disruptive because it can revolutionise the world’s thinking, not only about the challenges we are addressing, but also about Africans. The world is used to seeing Africa as a continent of need — but we are so much more than that.
It is also essential that SA research is funded by South Africans. Generous foreign funding has made a great deal of local research possible, especially into health issues such as HIV and tuberculosis. But when we rely too heavily on outside funding we are relying on those funders to set our research agenda. We need to also explore the urgent local issues that are likely to be ignored by the global north. That means we need to fund our own research.
