Abstract
Technology is one of the topics being treated in the OECD Horizontal Programme on Sustainable Development, which involves most Directorates of the OECD (e.g. Economics, Environment, Agriculture, Science and Technology), the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) in a three-year effort to develop policy recommendations for Member governments for achieving sustainable development goals. The underlying objective of the horizontal effort is to achieve policy coherence in addressing sustainable development issues. There will be a series of interdisciplinary workshops and conferences as well as analytical reports. A policy report will be delivered to the OECD Ministerial Council Meeting in 2001.
