I-African Open Science Platform ukuze kukhuliswe umthelela wedatha evulekile yesayensi nomphakathi

Lolu hlelo lwe-Afrika yonke luzogqugquzela ukuthuthukiswa nokudidiyelwa kwezinqubomgomo zedatha, ukuqeqeshwa kwedatha nengqalasizinda yedatha. Isigaba sokuhlola, esethulwe namuhla, sisekelwa yi- UMnyango Wezesayensi Nobuchwepheshe waseNingizimu Afrika (DST), ixhaswe ngabakwa- I-National Research Foundation (NRF), iqondiswe ngu I-CODATA, IKomidi Lolwazi LoMkhandlu Wamazwe Ngamazwe Wezesayensi (ICSU) futhi laqaliswa yi I-Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf).

Lesi sinyathelo sisuka ku-Science International Accord on Vula Idatha Emhlabeni Omkhulu Wedatha, eyethulwa ku-SFSA ngowezi-2015. Lesi Sivumelwano sethula umbono obandakanyayo wesidingo kanye nezinzuzo zeSayensi Open Data emazweni ngamazwe, futhi ikakhulukazi emazweni anemali engenayo ephansi naphakathi. UMkhandlu Wamazwe Ngamazwe Wezesayensi kanye nabanye ababambisene neSivumelwano Samazwe Ngamazwe SaseSayensi bayalwamukela lolu hlelo futhi basize ekwakheni ubudlelwano bokuhlola.

UNgqongqoshe uPandor ubeke amazwana “Ukwakhiwa kwe-African Open Science Platform kuyisibonelo esihle kakhulu sethonya elibonakalayo IForamu yethu Yesayensi esesiyizuzile kakade ekuhlanganiseni ubudlelwano bamazwe ngamazwe ukuthuthukisa isayensi yase-Afrika. I-Platform izodlala indima ebalulekile ukusiza amazwe ase-Afrika ekuthuthukiseni amakhono adingekayo okuphatha kanye nokuxhaphaza idatha yesayensi ukuze kuzuze umphakathi. Ngiyaziqhenya ngokuthi uMnyango wethu, nezinhlaka zawo i-NRF kanye ne-ASSAf, zineqhaza kulo msebenzi obalulekile.”

Ukuqala kwenguquko yedijithali kudale ukuqhuma okungakaze kubonwe kudatha etholakalayo ukuze ihlaziywe njengesisekelo sokuqonda okwengeziwe nezinqubomgomo ezisebenza kahle ngososayensi, abenzi bezinqubomgomo, izakhamizi zamabhizinisi kanye nabanye abalingisi emphakathini. Amasethi edatha amakhulu ngokwedlulele, noma 'idatha enkulu', aqhuba lokhu kuguquguquka futhi abacwaningi bayakwazi ukubona amaphethini acashile kodwa anamandla ezindaweni ezisukela kuyo yonke isayensi, kusukela kwezokuphepha kuye ocwaningweni lwezakhi zofuzo nokuziphatha komuntu.

Imisebenzi eminingana yesayensi evulekile iyaqhubeka e-Afrika yonkana, kodwa kukhulu okuzozuzwa uma le misebenzi ibingahlanganiswa futhi ithuthukiswe ngohlelo lokuhlanganisa.

Kucatshangwa ukuthi i-African Platform izoba yisisekelo sokutshalwa kwezimali okwabelwana ngakho kwingqalasizinda. Izovuna futhi isabalalise imibono emihle, isabalalise futhi yeseke ukwenza okuhle futhi ithuthukise amakhono abantu ngabanye nezikhungo. Izokhuthaza ukusetshenziswa okubalulekile kokubaluleka kwezomnotho nemiphakathi yase-Afrika. Izophinde isebenze njengomgudu wokuxhumana nedatha evulekile yamazwe ngamazwe kanye nezinhlelo zesayensi ezivulekile kanye namazinga azobalulekile uma izochuma.

Inkundla yesayensi evulekile iqanjwa njengesethi edidiyelwe yezinhlelo ehlinzeka ngenqubomgomo, ukwakhiwa kwamandla kanye nohlaka lwengqalasizinda ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukufinyeleleka nomthelela. Lolu hlelo luphinde lugxile ekwakhiweni kwenkundla kazwelonke ye-Open Science lapho kuzoxoxwa khona futhi kusungulwe izinqubomgomo nokudidiyela.

Umgudu wezinga eliphezulu wokuthuthukiswa Kwenkundla uzonqunywa uMkhandlu Owelulekayo, kanye nokuthuthukiswa kwawo kobuchwepheshe Ibhodi Lokweluleka Kwezobuchwepheshe. Zombili izindikimba zizoba namalungu athathwe kuso sonke isifunda.

Ngesikhathi somhlangano wokucobelelana ngolwazi wosuku olulodwa kanye neseshini efanayo - kokubili njengengxenye ye-SFSA - ochwepheshe abavela kuso sonke isifunda bahlangane ukuze baxoxe futhi baklame ngokuhlanganyela ukuthuthukiswa okuqhubekayo kwenkundla nezindikimba zayo okuhlanganisa ukuthuthukiswa kwenqubomgomo edidiyelwe, izikhuthazo kanye nezinzuzo, ukwakhiwa kwamandla nokuqeqeshwa. , kanye nemigwaqo yokuxhumanisa ingqalasizinda yedatha.
