SME Technology Event

In support of governments, several bilateral and multilateral technology cooperation and partnerships in Environmentally Sound Technologies have been implemented in the region. In light of this, ESCAP has developed a project titled “Promotion of Publicly Funded Environmentally Sound Technologies Transfer through the Implementation of Unilateral Clean Development Mechanisms on Climate Change”. The project will be implemented from 2007 to 2009 to evaluate the barriers preventing publicly funded EST transfer and to develop models/pilot projects for successful EST transfer based on the concept of unilateral CDM projects in the carbon market. An initial small Expert Group Meeting (EGM) from 17 to 18 December 2007 will define the issues, will create a network of key players in the area of EST transfer and will identify the scope of the regional study to be developed under the current project. In this meeting experts from various regional institutions, government R&D agencies, and UN agencies would participate. UNESCAP in the partnership with China Standard Certification Center (CSC), Beijing and the Asia Pacific Centre for Technolgoy Transfer (APCTT), India, is organizing this event in Beijing, China.
