Secretariat launches technology transfer information systems
The UNFCCC secretariat developed a functional prototype of an Internet-based technology
information system which provides access to information on the development and
transfer of environmentally-sound technologies under the Convention, provides
synergy with ongoing efforts of other organizations, and reduces duplication of
efforts.
The
technology information system complements and works with existing web sites and
clearing houses of other relevant international organizations, as well as national
and regional technology information centres. It has the potential to act as a
gateway for fast access to up-to-date information on the latest technology transfer
projects, environmentally sound technologies and know-how, and provide access
to information on organizations and experts involved in the development and transfer
of technologies.

For
the first time, the secretariat has been able to have nearly all pages of the
COP7 website available in French. This has been possible thanks to the support
of the Organisation de la Francophonie.

taken, by UNFCCC and by the host Government as appropriate, to ensure adequate
security arrangements in and around the COP 7 conference facilities and in Marrakesh

of any new developments and looks forward to welcoming all participants in Marrakesh.
