الملخص

الأهداف:  تهدف هذه الدراسة التعرف إلى واقع المراكز البحثية في سلطنة عمان ودورها في دعم صنع القرار، من خلال دراسة أنواع البحوث، وطبيعة الخدمات، والأنشطة التي تقدمها المراكز.

المنهجية: اعتمدت الدراسة لتحقيق أهدافها على المنهج النوعي، باستخدام المقابلة شبه المقننة لتكون أداة لجمع البيانات، وتكون مجتمع الدراسة من جميع المراكز البحثية الأكاديمية والحكومية في سلطنة عمان البالغ عددها 21 مركزًا بحثيًا، باستثناء ثلاثة مراكز بحثية حديثة، وتمت مقابلة (18) مديرًا، و (2) رئيس قسم.

النتائج: كشفت نتائج الدراسة أن غالبية المراكز البحثية تساهم في دعم صنع القرار، وفقًا لتخصصاتها واهتماماتها، من خلال تقديم أنواع مختلفة من البحوث حسب مصادر التمويل، وهي البحوث الممولة داخليًا من المؤسسة التي حققت أعلى نسبة (100%)، تلتها البحوث التعاقدية الممولة خارجيًا من قبل مؤسسات القطاعين العام والخاص بنسبة (95%)، والمشاريع البحثية الاستراتيجية بعيدة المدى والممولة من حضرة صاحب الجلالة لدعم البحث العلمي، وبرنامج المنح البحثية الاستراتيجية التي ينفذها مجلس البحث العلمي بنسبة (38%)، في حين جاءت أقل نسبة للكراسي البحثية، إذ بلغت (29%). كما أوضحت نتائج الدراسة تنوع المجال البحثي للمراكز البحثية في السلطنة، إذ تركز على الدراسات المستقبلية، ودراسات استطلاع الرأي المحلي. كما أظهرت الدراسة  تقديم عدد من الخدمات والأنشطة من قبل المراكز، وتتمثل في الخدمات الاستشارية، واللجان المشتركة، والمؤتمرات والندوات والورش التدريبية، والمبادرات المجتمعية.
