Reduce dependence on foreign Space Services

18 May, 2023 By DIS

The Dean of the Faculty of Law, University of Cape Coast, Mrs. Julia Selman-Ayetey, has called on African leaders to emphasise the need for significant investment in the African space industry to reduce reliance on foreign space service providers.

The Dean of the Faculty of Law, University of Cape Coast, Mrs. Julia Selman-Ayetey

She made the remarks during the NewSpace Africa Conference 2023 in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire.

Outer space is used globally for many aspects of daily life such as national security, agriculture and food security and emergency relief efforts. As a result, she suggested an increase in African-owned and operated space services was crucial to protect the African space ecosystem.

Mrs. Ayetey underlined the need for African leaders to take actionable steps, including the implementation of national space law and policy, to create the enabling environment necessary to foster prosperity.

The conference was sponsored by the African Union (AU) and Space in Africa and hosted by the government of Côte d’Ivoire.

The event brought together industry leaders, academia, national space agencies and other critical stakeholders to share insights and ideas for the growth and development of the African space industry, which is currently valued at $20 billion and expected to surpass $22 billion by 2026.

The conference was aimed at addressingopportunities, challenges and trends in the African space and satellite industry to facilitate agenda-setting and nudge stakeholders in the direction of innovative solutions that can revolutionise the African continent for socioeconomic development.

DRIC organises Writing a Winnable Grant Proposal.

17 May, 2023 By DIS

The Directorate of Research Innovation and Consultancy (DRIC) has organised a seminar on grant proposal writing.

It was on the theme " Structure and essentials of a winnable grant proposal ".

Speaking at the programme, Director of DRIC, Prof. David Doku, said good proposal was a precondition to attract grant.

Director of DRIC, Prof. David Doku

 

"No grant comes through without a proposal. To win a grant, you must write a good proposal", he added.

Prof. Doku noted that grant proposal was needed because " it requires funding, helps plan the proposed research and help to organise research in a logical, focused and effective way."

Prof. Doku singled out project title and acronym, cover letter, executive summary, need statement, goals and objectives and methodology as major components of a grant proposal.

He also mentioned that " a need statement is a compelling description of the need or problem to be addressed by the applicant.

" In a need statement, your organisation should have the mandate to address the need; the need statement should address the call, and many more," he continued.

He advised that the need statement should be sweet, concise and simple and easily digestible.

In the process of writing a need strategy, Prof. Doku mentioned that “we state clearly what the need is, we use clear and credible statistics to support our argument, give clear sense of urgency and the need statement should be persuasive without being wordy".

He added that a good need statement gives the viewer the needed information to understand the objectives and approaches in the proposal, builds up towards answering a specific question that is unknown, discuss relevant data on the subject, etc.

Prof. Doku emphasised that a research plan must be so detailed that an independent researcher could carry out the study based on the plan.

 He added that to write a good proposal, one must read the call very well.

Religion plays key role in protecting the environment -Prof. Awuah-Nyamekye

08 May, 2023 By DIS

A professor of Religion and Environment, Prof. Samuel Awuah-Nyamekye, has tasked religious leaders to devote much time to conscientise their followers on the need to conserve the environment.

That, he noted, would go a long way to safeguard the environment and promote sustainable growth.

"To me, the impact of this will be far greater than the annual week declared by some religious denominations to do environmental cleaning and talk about the environment," he added.

Prof. Awuah-Nyamekye made these comments while delivering his inaugural lecture on the topic: " The Nexus between Religion and Environment: Matters Arising."

Expounding on the contributions of the three main religions in Ghana to the preservation of the environment, he said, for instance, traditional believers had mechanisms for addressing ecological problems, mentioning attitude towards rivers and lands, sacred grove, belief in totem, institution of sacred days, among others.

For Christians, Prof. Awuah, added that they had instituted days to as a measure to plant trees to protect the environment.

As regards Islamic Religion, he observed that "Islam is a religion that enjoins its followers to respect creation and protect the environment.”

He called on government to seek the inputs of religious organisations in the design of policy on the environment to protect the country’s forests, rivers, farmlands, and environment from destruction.

Prof. Awuah Nyamekye called for effective measures to be put in place to integrate religious environmentalism and its sub-field environmental ethics into Ghana's educational curricula for the youth to appreciate the need to conserve the environment.

He mentioned disrespect for other religions' ways of addressing ecological problems and tagging them as unscientific as a major problem for using religion to address some of the ecological problems.

UCC, QUB and UKRI-AAKTP embark on research for Rapid Detection of Quality Palm oil

08 May, 2023 By DIS

The University of Cape Coast and the Institute for Global Food Security, Queens University Belfast (QUB) in Ireland are undertaking a joint research project to boost the production of quality palm oil production for local consumption and export.

The 15-months project which is being funded through the Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) programme of the United Kingdom Research and Innovation aims at developing a novel, rapid, non-destructive, handheld test to determine the integrity and quality of palm oil and palm cream concentrate.

Among other things, the project is expected to provide technical support to Praise Export Services, a local export company at Pokuase in the Greater Accra Region, to solve palm oil adulteration and the determination of palm cream quality before the products are exported outside Ghana.

The project focuses on traceability and fraud management of palm oil; providing Praise Export with world class affordable, onsite system to ensure the integrity of their palm oil and other potential products; and to develop digital and a cloud-based link to obtain rapid testing results at a very low cost.

In connection with the project, the Programme Manager of KTP, Mr. Richard Lamp and, KTP Advisor, Mr. John Clayton visited Ghana to familiarise themselves with progress of work since the inception of the project.

Hosting the delegation at the premises of Praise Export Services in Accra, Prof. Ernest Teye of  Department of Agricultural Engineering, UCC briefed them about activities carried so far. 

Prof. Teye who is the Principlal Investigator for the project indicated that the team had made significant feat as far as the objectives of the project was concerned. He mentioned that the team was working towards making great impact with the project to improve the palm tree value chain to produce healthy and standard products for local consumption and export.
