由聯合國工業發展組織全球投資與技術促進辦公室網絡（UNIDO ITPO Network）發起的“創新思維與技術應對新冠疫情”全球倡議獲獎項目名單將于7月14日重磅揭曉。該倡議旨在全球范圍內征集并推廣最具創新性的解決方案和可擴展技術，以解決新冠疫情對發展中國家帶來的影響，并使其經濟更具復原力。最終獲勝的4個項目得到UNIDO全球網絡的支持，并在意大利2020年歐洲科學開放論壇，以及2021年迪拜世博會上展示。

5大洲108個國家

1100+項目參與Global Call

來自5大洲108個國家的1100多個創新項目參與了UNIDO全球倡議，最終角逐4個獎項，類別為：

突發衛生事件應對 (Health Emergency)

能源與環境 (Energy and Environment)

食品與農業 (Food and Agriculture)

具有復原力的工業和基礎設施 (Resilient Industries and Infrastructure)

項目將從以下五個標準進行評選：項目提議的創新性；環境、社會、經濟層面的長期可持續性；在不同地域背景下的可持續性；預期回報；申請方已獲得的財務投資情況。

許多參與#UNIDOGlobalCall的項目專注應對新冠疫情導致的立即影響，例如通過監測健康的生物技術、城市農業模式下的智能物流，來解決衛生危機、全球食品短缺和供應鏈中斷等問題。另外一些項目注重長期解決方案，例如正確處置和回收防護設備，可持續廢物管理，高效的生產系統和新的分銷渠道，以確保未來幾年的復原力和穩定性。

23個項目被UNIDO ITPO Shanghai

推薦至#UNIDOGlobalCall

2020世界人工智能大會云端峰會上，23個參加“可持續技術創新與全球合作”項目路演的優秀項目被UNIDO ITPO Shanghai推薦至UNIDO Global Call，推薦名單如下：

Winners of UNIDO Global Call - “Innovative Ideas and Technologies vs. COVID-19 and beyond”, an initiative by UNIDO's network of Investment and Technology Promotion Offices (ITPOs), will be announced soon. UNIDO Global Call offers an opportunity at an international level to identify and promote innovative solutions contributing to tackle COVID-19 effects in developing countries and make their economies more resilient, in alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The final 4 winners will be supported by UNIDO's global network, as well as to showcase their winning projects at the EuroScience Open Forum 2020 in Italy and the EXPO Dubai 2021. 

1000+ projects from 108 countries of 5 continents participated in the UNIDO Global Call to compete for 4 winners in the following categories:

Health Emergency 

Energy and Environment

Food and Agriculture

Resilient Industries and Infrastructures

All submitted proposals are evaluated according to the following 5 criteria: innovative content of the proposal, environmental, social and economic long-term sustainability, scalibility and possibility of extension in different geographical contexts, expected occupational return, and applicants’ financial involvement.

Many proposals focused on the immediate effects of COVID-19 pandemic. They aim to tackle the current sanitary crisis, as well as its severe repercussions on food shortages and supply chains worldwide, by fostering biotechnologies for health monitoring and smart logistics for urban farming models. On the other hand, many submissions promoted fundamental long-term solutions – such as the correct disposal and recycling of protective equipment, sustainable waste management, efficient production systems and new distribution channels – to ensure a successful recovery and stability in the years to come.

At the 2020 World Artificial Intelligence Conference Summit Online, 23 outstanding projects participated in "Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development (ISID) Technology Global Roadshow" were recommended to UNIDO Global Call by ITPO Shanghai.

The winners will be announced on July 14, 21:00 (Beijing Time), 15:00 (Vienna Time). Please tap "Read more" at the bottom left corner of this article to register for the award ceremony.
