The Addis Ababa Action Agenda established the Technology Facilitation Mechanism (TFM) to support implementation of the SDGs. The TFM includes 4 components:
IATT: A United Nations Interagency Task Team on Science, Technology and Innovation for the SDGs
10-Member group: Group of High-level Representatives of Scientific Community, Private Sector and Civil Society appointed by the Secretary-General
STI Forum: Annual Multi-stakeholder Forum on Science, Technology and Innovation for the SDGs
2030 Connect: An online platform as a gateway for information on existing STI initiatives, mechanisms and programs
The annual STI Forum is a multi-stakeholder venue to discuss cooperation in science, technology and innovation (STI) around thematic areas pertaining to the implementation of the SDGs.
The President of ECOSOC appoints two co-chairs for the Forum who prepare a summary of the discussions at the Forum. This co-chair summary is then transmitted to the HLPF by the President of ECOSOC.
