Synopsis: Science: S&t: S&t priority:

Explicit S&t priority setting is performed commonly at different levels, including the policy (government) level, the strategic research funding agency) level and the operational (research performing institutes) level (OECD 1991).

whether existing scientific communiitie alone are placed best to set S&t priorities. An emerging consensus seems to suggest not,

and technology (S&t priorities should be complemented by the identification of key long-term demand for resources and reshaped management systems.

In 2007, the RF Ministry of Education and Science initiated the National S&t Foresight until 2025 to identify S&t priorities (Sokolov, 2008a,2009.

The final objective was a preparation of policy recommendations on the basis of the S&t priorities;

Within the implementation of this foresight study it was realised that S&t priorities should be complemented by innovative priorities for corresponding development of the Russian management system in the field of natural resources,

otherwise the S&t priorities could not be implemented fully. The third foresight study commissioned by the RF Ministry of Natural resources and Ecology was devoted to exactly this task:

and implement the federal goal-oriented programme‘‘S&t priorities for Development of the Russian S&t Sector in 2007-2012''.

''This programme was structured in accordance with the identified S&t priorities, and specific projects were selected on the basis of their relevance to the identified critical technologies.

(which correspond to National S&t priorities), 56 technology areas at the second level (which correspond to critical technologies) and more than 900 topics.

2030 was based on the FS1 results and also on a renewed version of the National S&t priorities and Critical technologies.

of which corresponds to the revised list of National S&t priorities: B Information and Telecommunication systems; B Living Systems;

‘‘Innovation priorities''in the above study were considered to be major activities in the Russian natural resources sector's management system that would contribute to achieving the RF S&t priorities and solving the main problems in the area.
