focusing the research on innovative solutions to Indonesia’s development challenges Sample Clauses

focusing the research on innovative solutions to Indonesia’s development challenges. SHERA hit this target head on.

This was done to meet national needs, but also because linking research to real-world issues can be a catalyst for engaging faculty and graduate students, while revealing the importance of S&T to the public. Toward these ends, after the initial planning period, SHERA limited CCR applications to the following five focus areas: Food Security and Self-Sufficiency; Environment, Energy and Maritime Sciences; Public Health and Infectious Disease; Urban Development and Planning; and Innovative Technologies. Under these headings, the selected CCRs pursued the following specific issues.
