Agriculture in semi-arid regions is increasingly vulnerable to climate variability and land degradation, threatening rural livelihoods and food security. At the same time, the global transition toward clean energy, particularly solar power, offers synergistic opportunities to mitigate climate change while supporting sustainable rural development...

Many parts of India will require data-driven analysis of the climate, air quality, health, and employment co-benefits of key sectoral interventions as they decarbonize. This research offers such an analysis for agrivoltaics—an intervention that co-locates agriculture with solar energy production on the same parcel of land—in India’s Nagpur...

This report provides a baseline assessment of Cambodia’s informal waste sector, with a focus on Phnom Penh and Battambang. Informal waste workers, including street pickers, door-to-door collectors, pickers at landfills and junkshop operators, play a critical yet undervalued role in the country’s waste management system. They are responsible for a...

Agrivoltaics, which combines the use of land for both agriculture and photovoltaic energy production, is emerging as a promising solution to the land use conflicts between farming and renewable energy. By simul[1]taneously boosting crop yields, enhancing solar panel efficiency and revitalising rural incomes, agrivoltaics is attracting farmers and...

Asia and the Pacific is a large and extremely diverse region, and home to 60% of the world’s population (United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, 2024), with the smallest per capita area of forest (FAO, 2024a). Deforestation has taken place across the region but at different scales, and different paces at different times. Naturally...

Holistic landscape restoration offers a solution to multiple interconnected challenges that face our planet. This paper introduces an innovative approach to financing nature alongside local socio-economic and wellbeing needs. Specifically, it describes a practical financing framework for HLR that can aid implementation of commitments related to...

Integrating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into climate actions is essential for a healthy planet and people. Yet, national climate policies and international climate support programs often fail to explicitly recognize the interconnections between climate concerns and other priorities covered under the SDGs. This failure can leave key...

The IPCC Sixth Assessment Report highlighted the critical connections between climate actions and sustainable development, including both synergies and trade-offs. Managing the trade-offs through policy design is strongly recommended and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are proposed as a basis for evaluating climate actions in the context...

There is a growing recognition of the urgent need to change citizens’ lifestyles to realise decarbonised societies. Consumption-based accounting (carbon footprinting) is a helpful indicator for measuring the impacts of peoples’ consumption on climate change by capturing both direct and embedded carbon emissions. However, while carbon footprinting...

This is presented at the Fifth Science-policy Forum For Biodiversity on 12 December, COP15 in Montréal. It aimed to apply the Tourism and Sustainable Transformation Framework, while integraing the recent findings from the IPBES assessments, to the case of coastal communities in Mauritius where the majority of the local communities are artisanal...
