The content of the generated document shall be the sole property of ESCWA.<br> Work Location<br>Remote<br> Expected duration<br>16 weeks<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>GENERAL SCOPE Technology transfer is a critical driver of economic growth in today’s global economy. Access to technology, and its effective integration into economic processes, significantly determines the competitive positioning of key stakeholders, including innovators, producers, researchers, government institutions, and financial actors. The establishment of a National Technology Transfer Office (NTTO) can play a pivotal role in integrating the capacities of innovators, investors, entrepreneurs, and researchers who are developing technological solutions addressing sustainability challenges and strategic national priorities. An NTTO can provide a comprehensive range of services, including policy advisory support to government ministries, identification and valorisation of intellectual property (IP) generated through research, and close engagement with researchers to highlight the economic potential of their work. It can also support patent drafting and protection, technology valuation, and offer a suite of services related to commercialization and industrial consultancy. Furthermore, an NTTO should actively facilitate linkages between national capabilities and multinational corporations seeking local partnerships for joint development and production. Institutions coordinating NTTO activities are expected to mobilize their own resources for the establishment and initial operation of these units. Recently, the Ministry of Telecommunications and Digital Economy (MTDE) in Palestine requested technical assistance from ESCWA to assess and develop a roadmap for establishing an NTTO in Palestine. In the context of strengthening the national innovation system (NIS)—and the technology transfer system in particular—this report aims to identify gaps in the existing legal and regulatory frameworks, government policies, and institutional capacities, including those within universities, that may impede the development of an effective technology transfer ecosystem. Key policy areas such as research and development (R&amp;D) incentives, intellectual property protection, and innovation-related regulations have a direct impact on the performance of the NIS. Accordingly, this report provides a detailed assessment of these factors and proposes a practical roadmap for the establishment of an NTTO in Palestine. The report will also offer recommendations on addressing legislative and policy gaps to support the effective establishment and operation of the NTTO. In addition, it will outline the proposed structure, functions, and operational model of the NTTO, drawing on international best practices, regional experiences, stakeholder consultations, and previous ESCWA work. These Terms of Reference are developed to guide the preparation of the report titled: “Establishing an Effective System of Technology Transfer in Palestine: Current Status, Structure, Operations, and Roadmap.” The provision of this advisory service constitutes the core objective of these Terms of Reference. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the report’s outline. The proposed draft version should include the following sections: • Existing legal and regulatory framework and policies related to innovation and technology transfer; • Review the relevant national and institutional existent legal framework and policies relevant to the process of innovation and technology transfer systems; • Review international and regional best practices in developing NTTOs to benchmark Palestine with the regional and international best practices. • Examining the situation in other countries in the Arab region that have already established NTTO, and get knowledge about their legal and regulatory system as well as their STI related policies and that support the establishment of NTTO; • Identification of gaps in laws, regulations and policies to allow for a more effective enabling environment for innovation and technology transfer. This would include brief analysis of the current situation with regard to innovation and technology transfer involvement in the economy of the country based on the national STI landscape mapping from previous report; • Suggestion of the needed office structure, its main functions and expected role of the relevant stakeholders (governance) based on best international and regional practices. This would include exploring planned policies with the representatives of governmental, nongovernmental, and other public interest groups to evaluate the present and planned legislative system which will affect the technology transfer network in the future and its strategies; • Finally, the consultant will suggest an actionable roadmap that includes the structure of the national technology transfer office (NTTO), its sustainability, and related liaison network by describing the main NTTO functions and activities, based on best international and regional practices, previous ESCWA outputs and taking into account national specificities. The report needs to clarify the relation of the NTTO role within the national technology transfer system in Palestine. • The consultant will present the report findings in a related national workshop, then update the report based on the collected comments and feedback. ESCWA promotes gender equality and integration of youth through its publications and therefore the consultant should pay attention, with the help of ESCWA staff, to gender considerations and youth dimension throughout the research work to ensure that the report gives equal attention to the needs of both men and women, as well as girls and boys.

At the same time, the United Nations system recognizes that AI has profound and far reaching impacts on human lives, economies, and ecosystems, influencing decision making, social interactions, and access to opportunities. While AI can serve as a powerful enabler for advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it also presents significant risks, including bias and discrimination, threats to human rights and privacy, environmental costs, and the potential to exacerbate existing digital and socioeconomic inequalities if not properly governed. In response to these challenges, UNESCO adopted in 2021 the first global normative instrument on AI ethics, which underscores that the protection of human rights and human dignity must remain at the core of AI systems throughout their lifecycle . The Recommendation highlights the importance of principles such as transparency, accountability, fairness, inclusiveness, and human oversight to ensure that AI technologies are trustworthy and aligned with human centered values. At the global level, the establishment of robust AI ethics frameworks is increasingly seen as a prerequisite for building trust in emerging technologies, enabling international cooperation, and ensuring that innovation contributes to inclusive and sustainable development. International organizations, including the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), emphasize that ethical governance, standards, and multistakeholder collaboration are essential to harness AI’s transformative potential across sectors such as health, agriculture, and disaster management, while mitigating associated risks and ensuring equitable access. In this context, ethical AI frameworks are not only regulatory tools but also strategic enablers for innovation, competitiveness, and social cohesion at the global level . In the Arab region, AI is recognized by UN-ESCWA as a defining megatrend with the potential to drive economic diversification, enhance public service delivery, and create new employment and skills opportunities across key sectors. The development of context specific, inclusive, and responsible AI governance frameworks is critical to ensure that AI adoption aligns with regional values, strengthens social inclusion, and supports progress towards national development priorities and the SDGs. For Mauritania, developing a national AI ethics framework is a strategic priority to guide the responsible adoption and use of AI technologies in line with international standards and best practices. Such a framework will play a critical role in safeguarding fundamental rights, strengthening public trust in digital transformation, and enhancing institutional capacity for AI governance. It will also provide a foundation for fostering innovation, attracting investment, and ensuring that AI applications contribute to inclusive economic growth, improved public service delivery, and sustainable socio economic development. UN-ESCWA, through its technical cooperation program, is committed to provide technical assistance to its member states to boost national efforts towards the achievement of the 2030 Development Agenda. Recently, the Ministry of Digital Transformation and Modernization of Admin (MTNMA) in Mauritania requested UN-ESCWA’s assistance in developing the national framework of AI Ethics. The provision of this advisory service is the subject of these terms of reference. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the national framework for the AI code of ethics in Mauritania.
