Development and Diversity 

Tausif Ahmed Sayed

To make innovation and creativity,
We need diversity

A scientific workforce should be diversified
To get inputs from every branch,
Moving towards inclusivity,
Where diverse minds interact

No age limit, no gender barrier
And no ethnic background
Include minds of all origins
Irrespective of financial background

Experience of different backgrounds
Helps to get non-obvious ideas,
Which turn into innovation,
Turn into national development

For the benefit of personkind and humanity
We need more scientific diversity
