The Mission Innovation (MI) Secretariat provides a stable, long-term resource to drive forward MI activities and achieve the vision and impact described in the Enabling Framework and the Action Plan through the use of collaborative, transparent and creative approaches. All Secretariat functions and tasks are delivered in close consultation and through recommendations from the MI Steering Committee.
Activities include:
- Supporting the MI Steering Committee (MISC), members and the MI Sub-Groups with the advice, evidence and structures to work effectively together to deliver tangible outcomes.
- Delivering the tools that enable the whole initiative to maximise the impacts of its activities including through communications, knowledge brokering and building coalitions.
- Tracking progress towards the delivery of the Action Plan, developing new initiatives that raise ambition, and generating excitement around emerging innovations.
