Efforts are being made globally to overcome these challenges:
1. International Collaborations: Partnerships between developed and emerging economies facilitate knowledge transfer and resource sharing. Organizations like the International Nanotechnology Network () and initiatives like NanoAfrica () aim to promote collaboration and support for nanotechnology projects. 2. Educational Programs: Various universities and institutions are offering specialized courses and training programs to build local expertise. For instance, the UNESCO-UNISA Africa Chair in Nanosciences & Nanotechnology () focuses on capacity-building in Africa. 3. Funding and Grants: International bodies and governments are providing funding and grants specifically targeted at nanotechnology research in emerging economies. The World Bank () and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation () are notable contributors.
