SASTA was born out of the mutual interest of Arab Expatriate Scientists (AES) and Academics living abroad to engage more effectively with the Arab Education, Science and Technology community to create a positive impact in the Arab World. Our objective as a society is to follow-up on all activities that will have a positive impact on the status of science and technology in the Arab countries. The focus will be on mobilizing the Arab Expatriate Scientists (AES) community in the Diaspora. Members of this group include established scientists and educators, heads of Departments, Institute Directors, University Administrators, and CEOs of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. As a society we strive to be action-oriented and targeting ideas and proposals that will have the most likely short-term or long-term impact. We therefore have several initiatives detailed on this website. Some of our focus is on research collaboration with local Arab Universities, another focus is acting as a resource to help young graduate students from the region, and we also have direct connection with regional decision makers in government, academia and research to enable these initiatives.
