The first part addresses the general question of the role of technology transfer in development and what special considerations are appropriate for Sub-Sahara African countries. The second part will describe and evaluate three different approaches to transferring technology to small-scale industry (SSI), the Sister Industry Programme of Sweden, the Business Co-operation Programme of GTZ (the German Agency for Technical Co-operation), and the appropriate technology approach of ATI (Appropriate Technology International) and ITDG (Intermediate Technology Development Group).
