In this event, in order to accelerate action and transformation for the attainment of SDGs, “A Comprehensive Framework on Appropriate Technology Choice for Sustainable Development” will be proposed, along with concrete examples of appropriate technology choice based on practices in Indonesia and the Philippines. The framework can lead to the sustainable and resilient post-pandemic society, where basic needs such as water, foods and electricity are supplied locally and self-sufficiently, participatory small to medium scale local industries are developed, and local people associate and exchange widely and inter-locally.
