The first phase of the Programme included an initial group of five pilot countries. Under this phase, roadmaps are piloted in Ethiopia, Ghana, India, Kenya, and Serbia. Most recently, in February 2021, Ukraine also joined the Programme bringing the number of pilot countries to six. In addition, both the European Union and Japan joined the Global Pilot Programme to strengthen international partnerships on STI for SDGs roadmaps. These pilots are implemented following the guidance of the "Guidebook for the Preparation of STI for SDGs Roadmaps".</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:11px;"><span style="color:#4d4d4d;font-family:"Oswald",serif;font-size:12.0pt;line-height:normal;vertical-align:baseline;">The outcomes of these pilots will be used to generate lessons that will improve the guidelines.

The Guidebook has been developed by STI experts and representatives from UN IATT and other key strategic partners.</span></p><p style="margin-bottom:11px;"><span style="color:#4d4d4d;font-family:"Oswald",serif;font-size:12.0pt;line-height:normal;vertical-align:baseline;">To date, more than 20 countries have expressed interest in joining the programme.

STI roadmaps for SDGs are policy and planning tools leading to actions that can accelerate the attainment of the SDGs. They are integrated into national plans and are highly adaptable to different country contexts. The demand to further promote the deployment of STI for SDGs roadmaps was triggered by the need to accelerate efforts to close the digital divide and support the digital inclusion of disadvantaged groups especially following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Substantial support has been provided by international stakeholders, including the European Commission's Joint Research Centre, the Global Sustainable Technology and Innovation Conference Series, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, the Government of Japan, and COVIDEA.

The purpose of such a platform is to foster an efficient and effective access to and exchange of information among stakeholders on recent work that is supportive of the development of STI roadmaps for SDGs. With this aim, this platform will become an online resourceful portal on the state of STI policy setting frameworks and will contribute to enhancing the capacity of member states in integrating STI in development processes.</p><p> </p><h4 id="subHeadline">II.

In line with <a href="http://www.un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol= A/RES/68/310 &Lang=E" target="_blank">Resolution A/RES/68/310 </a>and <a href="http://www.un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol= A/RES/69/214&Lang=E" target="_blank">Resolution A/RES/69/214 para 12 </a>, the Secretary-General proposed in <a href="http://www.un.org/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol= A/69/700&Lang=E" target="_blank">paragraph 125 of his Synthesis Report </a>to take into account the recommendations emerging from the structured dialogues, specifically to “establish an online, global platform building on and complementing existing initiatives, and with the participation of all relevant stakeholders.” In order to support the Secretary General’s proposal, the Interagency Working Group on a Technology Facilitation Mechanism (IAWG) was initiated by the DESA and UNEP at the end of 2014. The group is open for participation by all ECESA Plus entities. At present it comprises DESA, UNEP, UNIDO, UNCTAD, UNESCO, ITU, WIPO, and the World Bank Group.</p><p>The group’s work is structured around four work streams where it identified opportunities to collectively achieve greater impact within the scope of existing mandates:</p><ol><li class="sdgs">the mapping of existing the technology facilitation initiatives including support for policy formulation and strengthening of technological capabilities and innovation systems;</li><li class="sdgs">identifying areas of synergy and areas of possible cooperation within the UN system on technology-related work;</li><li class="sdgs">developing options for a possible online knowledge hub and information-sharing platform; and</li><li class="sdgs">cooperating with relevant stakeholders on building STI capacity building.</li></ol><p>In this connection, two side events have being organized by the IAWG: one in June 2015 in New York during the Post-2015 Development Agenda negotiation, and one in July 2015 in Addis Ababa during the Third International Conference on Financing for Development. The primary objectives of the first event were to brief Member States and other stakeholders on the progress to date of the IAWG on the mapping exercise, the development for options for an online platform, and on enhancing coordination and coherence of UN system capacity building work on science, technology and innovation. The second event presented a joint interagency statement endorsed by eight Heads of Agencies, and focused on how the United Nations system is prepared to coordinate its initiatives including capacity-building efforts on science, technology and innovation in support of the sustainable development goals.</p><p>Member States have clearly indicated in the OWG proposal and the FfD process that technology development, dissemination and transfer and the strengthening of scientific and technological capabilities of all countries represent key elements of the Means of Implementation of the post-2015 development agenda. In particular, the Addis Ababa Action Agenda includes a decision to establish a technology facilitation mechanism which would be launched at the UN Summit for the adoption of the Post-2015 Development Agenda in order to support the SDGs. The mechanism comprises a multi-stakeholder forum on STI for the SDGs; an online platform as a gateway for information on existing STI initiatives, mechanisms and programs; and a UN interagency task team on STI for the SDGs which will promote coordination, coherence, and cooperation within the UN System on STI related matters, enhancing synergy and efficiency, in particular to enhance capacity building initiatives. The platform will also engage stakeholders from civil society, the private sector, and the scientific community.</p><p>Given the Science Technology Innovation-related decisions contained in the Addis Ababa Action Agenda and the Post-2015 Development Agenda, the IAWG now reconstitutes as the Inter-Agency Task Team, stands ready to support pro-actively Member States’ ambitions to establish the envisaged technology facilitation mechanism, and consider how best to reach out to other partners in what must become a truly multi-stakeholder endeavour going forward. A strengthened UN system interagency working group, or task team, on STI for the SDGs together with strong multi-stakeholder engagement could play an important role in effective delivery, in support of the future implementation of the post-2015 development agenda and the SDGs.</p><h3> </h3><h3 id="subHeadline">Options</h3><p>Recommendations of the <a href="https://sdgs.un.org/index.php?page=view&nr=1417&type=111&menu=35"><strong>Secretary General Report A/67/348</strong></a></p><p>The present report has been prepared pursuant to General Assembly resolution A/66/288 of 27 July 2012 which endorsed the outcome document of the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, entitled “The future we want”. Paragraph 273 of this resolution requests “relevant United Nations agencies to identify options for a facilitation mechanism that promotes the development, transfer and dissemination of clean and environmentally sound technologies” and requests me to “make recommendations regarding the facilitation mechanism to the 67th Session of the UN General Assembly”.
