Establishing Priorities for Follow-Up

Future AAAS Role

It is expected that most of the followup to this workshop will be led by the African chemical societies and ACS. As a multidisciplinary general science organization, AAAS see its most useful role as that of catalyst in similar initiatives within other disciplines. In each case, the continuation of these efforts in each discipline will depend on the needs, desires, goals, and enthusiasm of the US and African societies in the respective fields. However, AAAS remains open to the possibility of continued participation in subsequent projects in particular disciplines, if such involvement is deemed appropriate and desirable by all parties.
