Science, technology and innovation (STI) are essential enablers of environmental sustainability – shaping new solutions for energy, mobility and resource management as well as policy responses, behavioural changes and more – but also a source of competitive advantage and economic opportunity.
This session presents and discusses recent analytical work by the OECD and the International Finance Corporation (IFC), which collectively offer a range of approaches for measuring "environmental relevance” across a range of relevant inputs and outputs and for gauging the relative strengths and weaknesses of countries across the various dimensions.
This session aims to foster dialogue among policymakers, researchers and civil society on the insights that emerge out of this work, particularly regarding the shifting patterns in technological and scientific leadership. It will also highlight the importance of robust evidence to enhance our understanding of the contribution of science and innovation to sustainable economic growth.
