Abstract
Measurement of science, technology and innovation (STI) in South Africa is based on a global standard set by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), which is strongly influenced by highly developed economies. Over the past few years, the HSRC's Centre for Science, Technology and Innovation Indicators (CeSTII) has grappled with maintaining the core OECD approaches for global comparability, while designing new measures and indicators more appropriate to the Southern African context.-
