This regional project seeks to provide the necessary support and guidance to ensure the successful implementation of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 9 and its key priority areas in Latin America and the Caribbean. These priorities were identified by high-level representatives of the Ministries responsible for industrial development during the High-Level Regional Conference "SDG9: progress by innovation in Latin America and the Caribbean" held in Panama City from 18 to 20 October 2022, and then were validated in January 2023 by the Group of Latin American and Caribbean countries (GRULAC) with Permanent Missions in Vienna. This UNIDO regional project will promote collaboration among governments, private sector and academic representatives, alongside international partners and stakeholders. This proposed collaboration, in conjunction with a tripartite cooperation mechanism, will help leverage south-south cooperation initiatives in Latin America and the Caribbean and promote inclusive and sustainable industrial development. This regional project is expected to foster industrial development in the region and act as the UNIDO’s response to the Member States’ demands voiced during the GRULAC meeting on 11 November 2022 and reiterated during the IDB plenary sessions on 21-23 November 2022
