Produced as part of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) project to champion the decade of action and delivery, Earth, Oceans and Skies metaphorically unifies two issues: science and gender, as a mighty, transformative force in every aspect of our existence.
The scientists featured in Earth, Oceans and Skies are exemplars who have been selected through an informal, yet rigorous process. Presented as condensed autobiographies, the stories in Earth, Oceans and Skies create a mosaic of individual journeys interwoven with the historical, political and social economic contexts that influence the science, technology and innovation endeavour in Africa.
