These guidelines provide a framework for strengthening the contribution of European Union (EU) international cooperation and development policy to sustainable development by integrating, or mainstreaming, environmental and climate change considerations into the different phases of the EU programme and project cycle. The guidelines are intended for staff in the European Commission (EC), EU Delegations, and partner institutions.
The guidelines are presented in three chapters, complemented by additional resources;
- a separately published executive summary;
- nine annexes that provide practical tools and examples, including template terms of reference (ToR);
- sector notes (in development) and a series of climate change sector scripts,
The tools included will help policymakers understand the interlinkages within and between environment-related goals and targets; promote policy coherence and integration of the environmental dimensions of the SDGs; and help develop indicators, policies, and institutional arrangements to support progress toward the environment-related dimensions of the SDGs.
