摘要

迅速满足国家发展的基本需要，例如保健、教育、粮食安全和自然资源管理;肯尼亚需要利用天基技术。充满活力的国内航天部门进一步催生了大量其他与航天有关的机会，这与政府的长期规划战略是一致的;肯尼亚2030年愿景。我们具体分析了肯尼亚的技术环境，然后描述了肯尼亚建立空间部门和在空间技术方面自力更生促进可持续发展所需要的分阶段技术发展的特点。肯尼亚需要通过“跨越式”技术转移机制来建设人力、组织和社会能力。掌握卫星工程、对地观测和获得发射能力是重点领域。

Establishing a space sector for sustainable development in Kenya

To expeditiously address fundamental national development needs e.g., health, education, food security and natural resource management; Kenya needs to invoke space-based technologies. A vibrant domestic space sector further spawns a plethora of other space-related opportunities – congruous with the government’s long-term planning strategy; Kenya Vision 2030. We specifically analyse Kenya’s technological environment, and then characterize phase-by-phase technological evolution it requires to establish a space sector and become self-reliant in space technology for sustainable development. Kenya needs to build human, organisational and societal capacity through ‘leapfrogging’ technology transfer mechanisms. Mastering satellite engineering, earth observation and acquiring launch capability constitute the priority areas.
