analysis: The text appears to be discussing the state of science and technology (S&T) development in Ethiopia, highlighting the lack of national organizations and networks to deal with technology forecasting and evaluation. It also mentions the importance of building and strengthening S&T capabilities in various sectors, including research, technology transfer, and capacity building. This suggests that the text is primarily focused on the development of S&T in Ethiopia, which is a crucial aspect of economic development.
