“Technology Day” (TD) is a series of events taking place in 2020 and 2021 whose objective is to promote innovative approaches to deploy, disseminate and scale up adaptation technologies in various key sectors.
Building from a jointly organised event (see details below) by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Friends of Ecosystem-based Adaptation (FEBA) Network, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Technology Executive Committee (TEC) and the UNFCCC Nairobi Work Programme (NWP) Expert Group on Oceans, held on 6 September 2021 as part of the TEC Technology Day event series and the IUCN World Conservation Congress, a follow-up event on the topic of ecosystems and technology will take place in October 2021.
Under the guidance of the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) chair, the session will focus on interaction with Parties and Non-Party stakeholders and UNFCCC bodies and mechanisms on potential uptake of integrated technological and ecosystem-based approaches to support countries in implementing their National Adaptation Plans and Nationally Determined Contributions.
