China News Service, Beijing, November 17th (Reporter Sun Zifa) The organizer of the 4th World Science and Technology and Development Forum held a press conference in Beijing and Chengdu on November 17th to announce that the forum will be held from November 26th to 28th. held in Chengdu.
Continuing the theme of "openness, trust and cooperation", the forum will set up the main forum, the World Digital Economy Forum and 16 parallel forums, which will be held simultaneously online and offline, and will be broadcast live to the global network.
The 4th World Forum on Science and Technology and Development is co-hosted by the China Association for Science and Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Academy of Engineering and the Sichuan Provincial Government, and undertaken by the Chengdu Municipal Government.
For the first time, the local government participated in the hosting of this forum. Prior to this, the World Science, Technology and Development Forum has been successfully held in Beijing for three consecutive sessions.
According to the organizer, the 4th World Forum on Science, Technology and Development will send out China's voice to the international science and technology community, clarify China's position, contribute to China's solutions, and join hands with the international science and technology community to jointly deal with global risks and challenges.
This year's forum also highlighted basic research and implementation services, which specifically showed the following characteristics:
The first is to focus on the theme of "science and technology" and "development" to design the forum plan, and design the forum activities around the five major sections of the world to the same, the digital to the real, the development to the good, the technology to the good, and the future.
The opening and closing ceremonies of the main forum of the "World Alignment" section set development priorities - science and technology promotes the progress of human society, people-oriented - science and technology guarantees and improves people's livelihood, inclusiveness - green innovation and sustainable development, action orientation - oriented The way of scientific and technological innovation for global challenges, innovation-driven - future technological revolution and industrial transformation, basic research for sustainable development goals (SDGs) and other six major topics, promote better play of the role of science and technology in promoting global development, and contribute to the construction of The community of shared future for global development contributes the wisdom and solutions of the scientific and technological community.
The "Digital Reality" section sets up the World Digital Economy Forum and the Digital Frontier and Emerging Industries Forum, and discusses four major topics, namely, change and opportunity, technology and empowerment, development and governance, transformation and innovation.
The "Developing for the Better" section focuses on the frontiers of biomaterials and engineering, green factory development and innovation, infrastructure network electromagnetic security, dual carbon-driven new energy innovation and development, and next-generation aviation technology and equipment. Five parallel forums were set up.
The "Technology for Good" section focuses on open science and open source innovation, disaster science and disaster governance, germplasm innovation and food security, climate change and environmental sustainability, traditional Chinese medicine and human health, and science and industrial transformation. forum.
The "Future Up" section set up 4 parallel forums around topics such as female scientists, cutting-edge technology for young people, global challenges and sustainable development, and cooperation between academicians of the two academies and multinational companies.
The second is to adhere to an international perspective and expand the international "circle of friends" of the forum.
On the basis of continuing to hold fixed parallel forums such as digital economy, open source innovation, enterprise innovation, and female scientists, the forum added more than ten parallel forum activities, and invited more than 300 high-level guests from China and abroad. Through keynote speeches, high-end dialogues, and investigations Docking and other exchanges and discussions fully demonstrate the international level of the forum.
The third is to focus on basic science and promote international cooperation in basic science.
The forum plans high-end dialogues around "Basic Research for SDGs", focuses on basic research fields such as mathematics, physics, astronomy, and geography, invites well-known scientists in basic disciplines at home and abroad, focuses on the current and long-term, and takes into account challenges and opportunities. Realize the sustainable development goals, conduct on-site interactive exchanges, and promote international cooperation in basic research.
At the same time, in response to the relevant deployment of the United Nations International Year of Basic Science for Sustainable Development, the forum organizer will jointly launch the "Basic Science for Sustainable Development Initiative and Discipline Development Report" initiative at the closing ceremony of the forum, calling on the global scientific and technological community to Concentrate on basic scientific research, deepen practical cooperation, promote science popularization, promote sustainable development, and jointly promote basic science to contribute to the realization of sustainable development goals.
At present, the launch of the initiative has received positive responses from many international science and technology communities.
The fourth is to release major achievements and lead the direction of cutting-edge technological innovation.
The forum continues to publish the "Top Ten Scientific Issues for the Development of Human Society in 2022". Among the United Nations' 17 sustainable development goals for human society, the three areas of climate, cities, and manufacturing are used to study and judge major global issues and challenges facing mankind.
The Chinese Chemical Society, in conjunction with the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry and other internationally renowned scientific and technological organizations in the field of chemistry, has selected innovative technologies with great potential around the world, and released the 2022 IUPAC Top Ten Emerging Technologies in the Chemical Field.
The fifth is to strengthen the implementation of services and serve the construction of science and technology innovation centers in the Chengdu-Chongqing region.
The forum played a leading role in local economic and social development, focused on Sichuan's science and technology and industrial characteristics, and held the "Green Earth, Digital Pulse" World Digital Economy Forum application scene exhibition for different participants, seed industry inspection activities, and face-to-face activities between scientists and teenagers Western (Chengdu) Science City inspection activities, local industry promotion and appointment, signing ceremony and other special activities.
