The Global Environment Facility (GEF) is one of the entities entrusted to provide financial resources to assist developing and transition countries in implementing the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The GEF launched the Poznan Strategic Program on Technology Transfer in 2008. This program supports the following activities: 1) conduct technology needs assessments; 2) support pilot priority technology projects linked to technology needs assessments; and 3) disseminate GEF experience and successfully demonstrated ESTs. The Long-Term Program on Technology Transfer seeks to scale up technology transfer activities supported under the original Poznan Program. This long-term program includes the following elements: (i) support for climate technology centers and a climate technology network; (ii) piloting priority technology projects to foster innovation and investments; (iii) public-private partnership for technology transfer; (iv) technology needs assessments; and (v) GEF as a catalytic supporting institution for technology transfer. This document provides an overview of the GEF's approach on promoting technology transfer, with new insights, along with updates on the original Poznan Program and the Long-Term Program.El Fondo para el Medio Ambiente Mundial (FMAM) se ha convertido en la mayor fuente de financiamiento del sector público para la transferencia de tecnologías ambientalmente racionales (TAR) y ha apoyado actividades de transferencia de tecnología en casi 100 países en desarrollo. Si bien se reconoce que el FMAM es un agente importante en este terreno, su función en cuanto mecanismo de transferencia de tecnología podría mejorarse y reforzarse. Con este fin, el FMAM puso en marcha el Programa Estratégico de Poznan para la Transferencia de Tecnología en 2008. En la presente publicación se facilita información actualizada sobre la contribución del FMAM a este programa. El Programa demuestra el renovado empeño en impulsar un progreso real en este importante esfuerzo y establece los siguientes tres servicios de financiamiento: realización de evaluaciones de las necesidades de tecnologías (ENT); ejecución, a título experimental, de proyectos prioritarios de tecnología vinculados a las ENT; y difusión de la experiencia del FMAM y las TAR.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACTION PLANACTION PLANSADOPTION OF TECHNOLOGIESAIRAIR CONDITIONERSAIR QUALITYALTERNATIVE TECHNOLOGIESAPPLIANCESBASICBEST PRACTICESBIBIOMASSBIOMASS ENERGYBIOMASS ENERGY SYSTEMSBIOMASS RESOURCESBOILERSBUILDING AUTOMATIONBUSINESSESCAPABILITIESCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPACITY-BUILDINGCARBONCARBON DIOXIDECARBON EMISSIONSCARBON STOCKSCARBON TECHNOLOGIESCATALYTIC ROLECHEMICAL FERTILIZERSCLEAN ENERGYCLEAN TECHNOLOGIESCLIMATECLIMATE CHANGECLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATIONCOCO2COLLABORATIONCOLLABORATIVE PROJECTSCOMMUNITIESCOMPETITIVENESSCOMPONENTSCOMPOSTCOMPOSTINGCOST SAVINGSCROWDING OUTCRUDE OILCUSTOMSDEGRADED LANDDEGRADED LANDSDEVELOPED COUNTRIESDIESELDIESEL OILDIFFUSIONDROUGHTECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITYECOSYSTEMEFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTELECTRICITYEMISSIONEMISSION REDUCTIONEMISSIONSEMISSIONS REDUCTIONEMISSIONS REDUCTIONSENABLING ENVIRONMENTENABLING ENVIRONMENTSENERGY CONSUMPTIONENERGY EFFICIENCYENERGY SOURCESENGINEERINGENGINEERING DESIGNENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTSENVIRONMENTAL ISSUESENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONENVIRONMENTSEQUIPMENTETHANOLEXPORT MARKETSFINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSFINANCIAL RESOURCESFLUOROCARBONSFORESTFOREST RESOURCESFORESTRYFOSSIL FUELFOSSIL FUELSFRAMEWORK CONVENTION ON CLIMATE CHANGEFUEL CONSUMPTIONFUEL USEGENERATION CAPACITYGHGGHGSGLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGEGLOBAL ENVIRONMENT FACILITYGLOBAL WARMINGGLOBAL WARMING POTENTIALGREENHOUSEGREENHOUSE GASESGWPHCFCHUMAN RESOURCESHYDROCARBONSHYDROCHLOROFLUOROCARBONHYDROGENIMPLEMENTING AGENCYINDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENTINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINNOVATIONSINSTALLATIONINSTALLATIONSINSTITUTIONINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYINSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORKINTELLECTUAL PROPERTYINTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSIPCCKNOW-HOWLAND DEGRADATIONLAND USELANDFILLLEARNINGLIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GASLOW-CARBONMANAGEMENT SYSTEMMANUFACTURINGMARKET DEMANDMARKET PLACEMARKET POTENTIALMARKETINGMATERIALMEDIUM ENTERPRISESMETEOROLOGYMONTREAL PROTOCOLNATURAL GASNATURAL RESOURCESNETWORKINGNETWORKSNEW TECHNOLOGIESNEWSLETTEROILOZONEOZONE DEPLETING POTENTIALOZONE DEPLETING SUBSTANCESPHOTOPILOT PROJECTPILOT PROJECTSPOLICY ENVIRONMENTPOLICY FRAMEWORKPOLICY INSTRUMENTSPOLICY MAKERSPOLICY SUPPORTPOLLUTIONPOTENTIAL INVESTORSPOWER PLANTSPOWER SUPPLYPPPSPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPPRIVATE PARTNERSHIPSPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR INVESTMENTPRIVATE SECTORSPROCUREMENTPRODUCERSPRODUCTIVITYPROGRAMMINGPROGRAMSPROPERTY RIGHTSPROTOTYPERECYCLABLE MATERIALSREFRIGERATIONREGULATORY FRAMEWORKSRELIABILITYRENEWABLE ENERGYRENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCESRESOURCE ALLOCATIONRESOURCE MANAGEMENTRESULTRESULTSRETROFITTINGRISK MANAGEMENTSERVICE PROVIDERSSOLAR POWERSOLAR RADIATIONSOLID WASTESSUPPLY CHAINSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTSUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENTSUSTAINABLE USETECHNICAL ASSISTANCETECHNICAL SUPPORTTECHNICIANSTECHNOLOGICAL CHANGETECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATIONTECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENTTECHNOLOGY INNOVATIONTECHNOLOGY INVESTMENTSTECHNOLOGY PUSHTECHNOLOGY TRANSFERTEMPERATURETIMBERTRANSMISSIONTRANSPORT SECTORUNEPUSERSUSESVALUE CHAINVERIFICATIONWASTE MANAGEMENTWEBSITEWINDWIND ENERGYWIND POWERWIND TURBINESWOOD PROCESSINGWorld Bank10.1596/978-1-939339-50-8
