The Asia-Pacific region stands at a historic crossroads. Rapid economic growth and urbanization over recent decades have delivered major social gains, including higher living standards, reduced poverty and expanded access to education. Yet the resource intensive, linear production and consumption model that has underpinned this growth is now...

Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the Asia-Pacific region requires understanding the deeply interconnected nature of the triple planetary crisis: climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution, while advancing socioeconomic development. Progress depends not only on sectoral achievements, but on the ability of policymakers and...

The previous chapters underscored that addressing climate, biodiversity and pollution crises together can generate synergies and accelerate progress on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Implementing synergistic solutions, however, require a range of strategies and mechanisms that can break down silos and facilitate interactions across...

With more than 2.2 billion urban residents, cities in Asia and the Pacific are well placed to drive the urban transitions needed to accelerate progress on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (ESCAP, 2025b).

As the Asia-Pacific region navigates the complex intersections of climate change, biodiversity loss, and systemic pollution, the need for integrated, cross-sectoral action has never been more evident. While high-level reports frequently emphasize the theoretical value of synergistic approaches—strategies that align multiple policy goals to maximize...

The Asia-Pacific Synergies Report synthesizes experiences from the Asia-Pacific region on translating synergies into practical, policy-relevant lessons for national and subnational policymakers and other stakeholders. The report argues that synergies should be positioned as a core organizing principle in policies and actions toward 2030 and beyond...

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...

This discussion paper explores the concept of climate-induced mobility in the Asia-Pacific region and its implications for security, governance, and policy development. It highlights the growing recognition of climate mobility in international and regional policy frameworks, while emphasizing the absence of a comprehensive global legal regime to...
