Vision

To use science, technology and innovation to support the Government of Sierra Leone to deliver on its national development plan effectively and efficiently; and to help transform Sierra Leone into an innovation and entrepreneurship hub.

The Directorate of Science, Technology and Innovation (DSTI) sits in the Office of the President and executes its functions through the Office of the Chief Minister. The Chief Innovation Officer (CIO) serves as an Advisor to the President and Chief Minister of Sierra Leone.

To execute on its mission and objectives, DSTI will seek guidance and external support by working closely with two active Advisory Groups: The Inter-Governmental Advisory Board and the Citizen’s Advisory Group.
