Ukuhamba ngokukhululeka kososayensi kanye nemikhawulo yama-visa ethinta ukushintshana kwesayensi

Background

Ukubambisana kwesayensi kwamazwe ngamazwe kuncike ekuhambeni kwesayensi - ososayensi bakwazi ukuwela imingcele. Kodwa-ke, izinqubo ze-visa nezokufuduka eziyinkimbinkimbi nezinomkhawulo eziya ngokuya ziyinkimbinkimbi futhi zenza kube nzima ngabacwaningi ukuya emihlanganweni, kuma-workshops kanye nasemihlanganweni yokubambisana, ukuthatha izikhundla zemfundo noma ukufinyelela amathuba okuqeqeshwa nokucwaninga kwamanye amazwe. Lezi zithiyo zithinta kakhulu abacwaningi abavela eNingizimu Yomhlaba futhi zidala ukungalingani ekufinyeleleni ulwazi namathuba, ekugcineni ziphazamisa ukusetshenziswa kwelungelo lokubamba iqhaza nokuzuza kwisayensi.

Ukungezwani kwezepolitiki okwandayo kanye nezidingo zokuphepha nokungena eziqinile kuye kwenza izinqubo ze-visa nezokufuduka zibe zezepolitiki kakhulu, zinomkhawulo, futhi zingalindeleki emhlabeni wonke. Lezi zinyathelo zithinta kokubili ukuhamba kwesayensi - ukuhamba kwesikhathi eside kwabacwaningi befuna izifundo, ukuqeqeshwa noma izikhundla zemfundo - kanye nokusakazwa kwesayensi, okuhlanganisa ukuhamba kwesikhathi esifushane ukuya emihlanganweni, ama-workshop kanye nemihlangano yokubambisana.

Inkululeko yokuhamba ingenye yezinkinga ezivame ukuphakanyiswa ubulungu be-ISC. Lo msebenzi, oholwa yiKomidi le-ISC leNkululeko kanye noMthwalo Wemfanelo kwezesayensi (I-CFRS), iphendula ngqo ezicelweni eziphindaphindwayo zesenzo, okuhlanganisa nalezo ezenziwe amalungu e-ISC General Assembly e-Oman ekuqaleni kuka-2025.

Lo msebenzi uhlola izithiyo zokuhamba kwesayensi kanye nokusabalala kwayo, kugxilwe kakhulu emikhawulweni yama-visa. Kusukela ngo-2026-2027, (i) izobhala phansi izinselelo ezibhekene nososayensi ezifundeni ezahlukene futhi ihlole amathuba okuqinisa ukuqashelwa kokuhamba kwesayensi njengendaba yamalungelo abantu, okuhlanganisa, ngokubambisana ne-UNESCO, ngezindlela ezifanele zamalungelo abantu ze-UN ezifana ne-Universal Periodic Review, (ii) ukuhlonza imikhuba ephumelelayo esevele isetshenziswa yizikhungo, kanye (iii) ukuthuthukisa isiqondiso esisebenzayo, esiqondene nomongo wezikhungo kanye nabenzi bezinqubomgomo. Kuzofaka isandla ngokuphelele engxoxweni ebanzi yomhlaba wonke mayelana nokuhamba kwesayensi kanye nelungelo lokubamba iqhaza nokuzuza kwisayensi, okuhlanganisa nokuzibandakanya kwe-ISC ne-UNESCO kanye nabanye abalingani.

Le phrojekthi isekelwe ku- Izimiso ze-ISC zenkululeko kanye nokuzibophezela kwezesayensi, eziqaphela inkululeko yokuhamba njengento ebalulekile kososayensi ukuze bahlanganyele ngokugcwele ebhizinisini lesayensi lomhlaba wonke. Iphinde isebenzise incazelo ye-ISC yalokhu Ilungelo Lokuhlanganyela Nokuzuza Kwesayensi, okuqinisekisa ukubaluleka kokubambisana kwamazwe ngamazwe kanye nokufinyelela olwazini lwesayensi. Ngokubambisana, lezi zinhlaka zisekela ukukhathazeka okubanzi kwale phrojekthi kokuthi imikhawulo ekuhambeni kwesayensi ingavimbela uhlobo oluhlangene, lomhlaba wonke lwesayensi futhi iphikisane nombono we-ISC wesayensi njengento enhle yomphakathi yomhlaba wonke.

Imisebenzi

Okuqhubekayo:

• Ucwaningo lwesifunda mayelana nokuhamba kwesayensi kanye nokujikeleza kwegazi: Ucwaningo oluhlola okuhlangenwe nakho okuqondene nesifunda kanye nezinselele ezihlobene nokuhamba komcwaningi kanye nokujikeleza kwegazi, nomsebenzi uqhubeka eLatin America (Julayi-Agasti 2026), oqondiswa yi-Young Academy of Colombia ngokubambisana nabalingani eMexico nase-Argentina, kanye nase-Afrika (ekwindla ka-2026), ngokubambisana ne-Global Young Academy.
• Ithuluzi Elihle Kakhulu Le-Visa Yengqungquthela Yesayensi: Kuthuthukiswe ngokubambisana ne I-International Astronomical Union, leli thuluzi lezwe ngalinye lizohlinzeka ngesiqondiso esisebenzayo kubahleli bemihlangano mayelana nokubhekana nezinqubo ze-visa nokubhekana nezinselele ezihlobene nenani elikhulu lezicelo ze-visa zokukhwabanisa kanye nokwenqatshwa kwama-visa aphelele okuholela ekunqatshweni kwama-visa aphelele (2026–2027).
• Ukusebenzisana ne-VisaWatch: Ukubambisana okuhleliwe no I-VisaWatch, isinyathelo se-Systems Policy Institute esilandela ukuphathwa kwama-visa emhlabeni wonke futhi sisekele abacwaningi nezikhungo ekuqapheni izinguquko ezidingweni zama-visa.

Okuhleliwe:

• Inhlolovo yamalungu e-ISC: Ucwaningo olwengeziwe lwamalungu e-ISC engxenyeni yokuqala ka-2027 luzogxila ekuboneni imikhuba ephumelelayo kanye nokuthuthukisa izincomo zokuthuthukisa ukuhamba kwesayensi kanye nokujikeleza kwegazi.
• Umbiko kanye nesiqondiso: Engxenyeni yesibili ka-2027, i-CFRS izohlanganisa okutholakele ocwaningweni lwesifunda, ukubonisana kwamalungu kanye nokuzibandakanya okubanzi nabalingani be-ISC kube umbiko ohlinzeka ngesiqondiso esisebenzayo, esiqondene nesifunda sezikhungo kanye nabenzi bezinqubomgomo.
• Isikhundla se-ISC ngenkululeko yokuhamba: I-ISC izobuyekeza futhi ibuyekeze isikhundla sayo ngenkululeko yokuhamba kososayensi.

Leli khasi lizobuyekezwa njalo njengoba kuqhubeka intuthuko.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, sizoqhubeka nokushicilela amabhulogi ahlola izinselele kanye nemiphumela yemikhawulo ekuhambeni kwesayensi kanye nokufinyelela kuma-visa, sihlanganisa imibono evela kososayensi kanye nabanye abathintekayo kuzo zonke izifunda.
