Advancement in Science and technology is vital for the development of any nation.Statistics have shown that in India we have a dearth of scientists. Hence, we as volunteers felt a strong need to take up this challenge of promoting Science and Technology among the students of Indian schools in Qatar. Thus, was born Science India Forum (SIF), an organisation by a group of professionals keen in popularisation of science in 2005.
