The MeKA - science hand in hand with production
2008
Avots, M., Baltic timber journal, Riga (Latvia)
It is no secret that there are public stereotypes which lead people to think that science involves peculiar professors and dusty piles of paper - theories, assumptions, research, defended and undefended dissertations which are inaccessible from the 'sidelines', cannot be put to practical use, and are probably read and evaluated only by other theorists. That is no always the case, however. In Latvia, as in other parts of the world, there are increasingly frequent calls for science and research to go hand in hand with production. In other words, science must be actual use in production processes. In the timber industry science has been developed successfully by the Forest and Timber Research Development Institute, known as the MeKA, and it was established by the forest sector. The institute tests products, educates people in the sector, and has become an institution for applied science and the training of specialists at a higher level.
