Study Notes

Nation Building

To build a strong nation, political structures, institutions, and a shared sense of purpose are essential.
Institutions include a bureaucracy, economy, judiciary, universities, civil service, and civil society organizations.

Key Drivers of Development

The Gross National Product (GNP) and the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) are key indicators of a nation's economic development.

Science and Technology in Nation Building

Science and Technology (S&T) play a vital role in addressing national and international development issues and providing societal services.
The Philippine government has prioritized the promotion of S&T in national development since the 1980s.
The 1987 Philippine Constitution emphasizes the importance of science and technology by outlining provisions for research and development, invention, innovation, and technological capability.

Philippine Government Science and Technology Agenda

The Harmonized National Research and Development Agenda (HNRDA) 2017-2022 was created by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) to ensure that S&T efforts benefit the nation economically and socially.

Major Development Programs and Personalities in Science and Technology

Dr. Angel C. Alcala was recognized for his research on Philippine amphibians, reptiles, and marine biodiversity, leading to the development of a national policy on marine no-take zones.
Dr. Ramon C. Barba made significant contributions to plant physiology, particularly the induction of mango flowering and micro propagation techniques.
Dr. Edgardo D. Gomez was cited for his research and conservation efforts in invertebrate biology and ecology, leading to international conservation initiatives for coral reefs.
Dr. Gavino C. Trono Jr., Ph.D., has made outstanding contributions to tropical marine phycology, focusing on seaweed biodiversity. His work led to the development of seaweed culture techniques that benefited coastal communities.

Selected Indigenous Science and Technologies

The Aerogas Catalytic Combustor (ACC) is an invention designed to reduce pollution and fuel consumption in internal combustion engines.
The SALt (Sustainable Alternative Lighting) Lamp is an environmentally friendly lamp that runs on salt and water, providing light in coastal areas.
The SALAMANDER Amphibious Tricycle is a vehicle designed to address the challenges of transportation in flood-prone areas.
