About the product

The present Policy Note reflects policy developments on the issue of sustainable development from the tenth session of the Committee for Development Policy of the United Nations Economic and Social Council. It closely examines the key channels through which climate change could undermine development, and identifies potential strategies aimed at ameliorating any negative impact , with particular attention given to adaptation and mitigation policies, enhanced international cooperation (especially in finance and technology), and improved policy coherence.
