On 14 September 2022 (1:00 - 2:00 PM EAT), Poverty-Environment Action for Sustainable Development Goals (PEA) held a global webinar and launched a new publication, Sustainable Development in Practice: a guide to Integrating Environment, Climate, and Poverty Reduction, the 3rd edition of the Handbook.
The handbook shows why and how to achieve the ‘integrated approach' to environment and poverty issues that have been called for in practically every international agreement on sustainable development and the environment. The Handbook offers readers:
- Improved understanding of the links between the poverty, environment, and climate challenges that influence the achievement of today’s holistic goals such as the SDGs or inclusive green economy;
- Learning from Poverty-Environment Action’s ‘programmatic approach' to tackling these challenges in four continents over 16 years, plus complementary lessons from other initiatives;
- A practical framework for applying the various activities that make up an integrated approach, based on a typical policy/decision-making cycle;
- Thereby helping readers to develop best-bet strategies for achieving integrated results more effectively, efficiently, equitably, and at scale.
