Keywords:
Cuba, Gobierno, ciencia, innovación, universidadesAbstract
This contribution discusses the creation of a government management system based on science and innovation (SGGCI). It explains the essential ideas on which it is based and provides some information about the progress and difficulties encountered in its implementation. Ideas are shared about the role of universities and the scientific and technological community in terms of a path to sustainable and inclusive development, in a context adverse to these purposes. The relevant role played by national science and technology in confronting the COVID-19 pandemic is highlighted, closely linked to governmental management, all of which made it possible to offer a social, scientific, political and health response capable of facing the challenge posed by the pandemic. The reasons for considering science and innovation as fundamental pillars of government management in Cuba in all areas are discussed. It is reiterated that the pandemic highlighted the importance of a scientific, scientific-technological style, marked by speedy responses, synergies and strong collaboration. All this led to emphasizing the importance of the science-government link. The management system created favors a systematic dialogue between scientists and the government.
