Interactions between key Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets are synergetic at the global level when pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C
Summary
The analysis finds that interactions between key SDG targets are generally synergetic at a global level when aligned with a 1.5°C climate target. Specifically, mobilizing climate finance and Official Development Assistance (ODA) and mainstreaming climate change into national policy are identified as the most beneficial objectives for advancing all other targets. The authors conclude that achieving these goals in tandem with the 1.5°C limit would strongly improve global resilience, adaptive capacity, and the reduction of poverty, vulnerability, and inequality.
Key insights
- At a global level, interactions between key SDG targets are synergetic when the objective is to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C.
- Two specific objectives are most effective for driving progress across all other SDG targets: the mainstreaming of climate change into national policy and the mobilization of Official Development Assistance (ODA) and climate finance.
- Simultaneously achieving SDG targets and staying within a 1.5°C warming limit would significantly enhance global adaptive capacity and resilience while decreasing poverty, vulnerability, and inequality.
