NSW activities at UJ are hosted by Soweto Science Centre, a flagship community engagement program located within the Faculty of Science at the University of Johannesburg. The strategic mandate of the Soweto Science Centre is geared towards the promotion of public understanding and awareness of science with the view of improving the quality of science, engineering and technology education in South Africa. The core vision of the Soweto Science Centre is essentially underpinned by the notion that meaningful human capital development remains a key strategic priority for the fulfilment of societal and economic needs within the broader South African context.
