South African Network of Science Centres (SANSC) is an online management system for the Science Centre Network profiling and online monitoring coordinated by SAASTA. The system automates the process of evaluation and/or accreditation and profiling of the science centres. It accepts both new and old science centres who have gone through the evaluation process as part of the Network of Science Centres in South Africa. The Network of Science Centres in South Africa is a group of science centres interconnected, aligned with, and supported by the Department of Science and Technology (DST). The science centres are the basic infrastructure for the delivery of the DST-led science promotion programme that seeks to (a) create a society that is knowledgeable about science, critically engaged, and scientifically literate; and (b) encourage the youth’s participation in science, technology, and innovation.
