Ethiopia has embarked on a national strategy of building a climate-resilient green economy. This model therefore does not focus only on mitigation strategies, but it also valorises the importance of improving climate-resilience, described as the ability to anticipate and adjust to climate change risks. In particular, the need to transit to a green economy model that is more inclusive is receiving growing attention as a pathway that can lead to sustainable development.
This report explores the linkages and contribution of inclusive green economy policies and strategies to structural transformation in Ethiopia. In this regard, the report provides an assessment of how inclusive green economy-related policies can reinforce the structural transformation agenda of Ethiopia; and how structural transformation policies and strategies can enhance the development of an inclusive green economy. The intent is to enhance understanding and promote the adoption of inclusive green economy policies that will contribute to achieving the structural transformation goals of Ethiopia.
