Lack of funds is hindering research in the construction sector and subsequent dissemination of research findings to help guide public policy.
Public Works Principal Secretary Gordon Kihalangwa said lack of funds has led to poor construction and handling of waste management, among other challenges bedeviling the sector.
“Sometimes the funds which have been allocated for research or training to these institutions is limited or not considered a priority yet our institutions of higher learning are required to have a backbone of research,” he said Tuesday during a three-day construction research forum in Nairobi hosted by the National Construction Authority.
