Enhancing Implementation of Technology Needs Assessments: Guidance for Preparing a Technology Action Plan

This guidance document  for preparing technology action plans (TAPs), is designed to assist countries in making informed decisions in their technology choices, and to articulate their own technology actions and formulate appropriate activities. Building on lessons from earlier  technology needs assessment (TNA) efforts, it offers a systematic approach for conducting TAPs in order to address barriers and accelerate development, transfer, deployment and dissemination of priority technologies.
