The in-person meeting was held from 14\u201316 April at OECD Headquarters in Paris. Assoc. Prof. Wongkot contributed to several agenda items, including preparations for the STI Outlook 2027.

He also expressed appreciation to the CSTP Secretariat for co-organizing the \u201cOECD\u2013Thailand Seminar: STI Outlook 2025 & STIP Compass,\u201d which saw strong engagement and enhanced the accessibility and policy relevance of the tool. In addition, he supported the advancement of Mission-Oriented Innovation Policies (MOIP), sharing Thailand\u2019s ongoing efforts to reform its STI system and the development of the 5-year Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation Policy Framework (2028\u20132032). The framework integrates MOIP approaches to address national challenges while strengthening inter-agency collaboration, private sector engagement, regional innovation ecosystems, workforce development, and monitoring and evaluation systems.<\/p>\n\n\n
