Abstract National S&T information governance, as an essential research object of information studies, aims to solve the problem of uncertain information in decision-making by optimizing the management of information activities. This paper discusses the competence system, evaluation process, tools, and implementation keys of empowerment evaluation in national S&T information governance by examining the origin of the empowerment concept, analyzing the management of information activities, and assessing practices. It concludes that empowerment evaluation aims to empower decision-making abilities, considers the best balance between national security and development and focuses on information ecology. The original intention of empowerment evaluation in the information governance process is to effectively grasp the relationships between perception and practice. Perception, characterization, and response to S&T information are the core processes in information work and become the primary concern in assessing national S&T information governance.
