Call for Action
-
Ever wondered why There are so few Muslims in positions of responsibility and visibility in Foreign Universities, Research Centers, and Think Tanks?
-
Ever wondered Why There are so few PhDs in Universities, Research Centers and Think Tanks-based in Muslim Countries and abroad, and yet there are so many opportunities for getting quality training in the research community abroad?
-
Ever wondered why our collective research ouput (e.g. published papers) is mere 1.15% of the output of the entire world even though we constitute 25% of the world’s population?
-
Ever wondered why not even a single university in Muslim Countries ranks among the top 1000 Universities in the World?
Why is Scientific and Technological Research and Innovation considered a third-rate profession in the Muslim World? Ever wondered What We Can do about it?
