Shirika la Maendeleo la Umoja wa Mataifa (UNDP) limezitaka taasisi za elimu ya juu nchini kuacha kuishia kuzalisha tafiti kwa ajili ya machapisho ya kitaaluma, badala yake zigeuzwe kuwa bidhaa, huduma na biashara zitakazotatua changamoto za jamii, kuzalisha ajira na kuchochea uchumi.
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has urged Tanzanian universities and higher learning institutions to move beyond academic publications and turn research findings into products, services and viable businesses capable of addressing social challenges, creating jobs and driving economic growth.
