JointInitiativesImageUNGIS agreed to work on three joint initiatives and identified areas such as child on line protection, open access to scientific information and connectivity, having an important role to play towards 2015:

Mobile for Development: the objective of this initiative is to identify key policy initiatives and add value to the existing programmes and projects by facilitating synergies and joint efforts in order to maximize coordinated action, coherence and effectiveness towards implementing successful Mobile for Development Projects.

Open Access to Scientific knowledge: the objective of this initiative is to promote with all agencies interested that public financed research data across UNGIS' organizations mandates will be made accessible free of charge.

Science, Technology and Innovation Policy (STIP) reviews: the purpose of the STIP Review is to help the Government ensure that its science, technology and innovation programmes become an instrument for supporting relevant components of the national development agenda.

Child on Line Protection (2009 -2011): COP has been created as an international collaborative network for action (comprised of UN agencies and other partners) to promote the online protection of children worldwide, based on a multi-stakeholder approach and the belief that every organization — whether online or mobile, educator or legislator, technical expert or industry body — has something to contribute
