Innovation drives long-term economic growth. It has a crucial role to play as
global economies recover from the current financial crisis. This book examines
the role of innovation in developing countries, with a focus on Africa. It
investigates innovation systems and their application; the key role of
knowledge in innovation for development; and the importance of comparable
country studies and official statistics on innovation. It stresses the need
for innovation to become part of a comprehensive development agenda, and makes
recommendations for promoting activities in both the formal and informal
sectors, with the aim of transforming agriculture into a knowledge-based
industry capable of stimulating economic growth.

Innovation and the Development Agenda is an important component of the overall
OECD Innovation Strategy, which seeks to create stronger and more sustainable
growth, while addressing the key global challenges of the 21st century. It is
also part of the Innovation, Technology, and Society programme of IDRC. For
