Israel and India agreed today on doubling the joint fund for scientific research, and it will amount to one million dollars.
The fund has been operating for a decade, and within its framework 28 studies were carried out in the fields of biotechnology, agriculture and the human genome.
The joint statement on the intention to double the fund was issued at the end of a meeting held in India between the Minister of Science and Technology Eliezer (Modi) Zandberg, and his Indian counterpart Bachi Singh Rawat.
Minister Zandberg said that the increase of the joint fund will allow the expansion of the research fields into research fields that are essential for both countries, such as nano technology and water.
At the meeting between the ministers, the Indian Minister of Science expressed interest in the establishment of regional research and development centers, similar to the Israeli model in which the Ministry of Science and Technology operates ten research and development centers in the peripheral regions, including Kiryat Shmona, the Golan Heights, the Galilee, the Triangle, Samaria and the Jordan Valley, Judea, the Sea The Salt, Gush Katif, Mitzpe Ramon and Hezva.
