Annual Results Report for 2022

The Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) 2022 Annual Results Report details the organization's progress across three impact areas: reducing climate risk, promoting sustainable resource use and resilient ecosystems, and improving health and well-being. Key achievements include contributing to the COP27 decision to establish a loss and damage fund, developing the Global Environmental Impacts of Consumption (GEIC) indicator adopted at COP15, and implementing water management master plans in Bolivia. The report highlights the use of digital tools like LEAP, WEAP, and Trase to inform policy in various regions, including Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Organizationally, SEI reports an increase in scientific publications, a diversification of funding sources, and the implementation of a global monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) procedure.

• The Global Environmental Impacts of Consumption (GEIC) indicator, based on SEI's IOTA footprinting model, was adopted as part of the 2022 UN Biodiversity Conference (COP15) agreement to help countries measure the environmental impacts of their consumption outside their borders.
• In Bolivia, the WATCH project resulted in the co-creation of three watershed master plans for the Tupiza, Pampa Huari, and Choqueyapu rivers to ensure equitable water access and empower local authorities.
• SEI supported the development of the Lancang-Mekong Environmental Cooperation Strategy and Action Framework (2023–2027) to improve cooperation on water resources and environmental issues among Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand, and Viet Nam.
• The institute's Trase tool provided detailed deforestation risk assessments for Belgium and Germany and helped the French government create a public risk assessment dashboard for soy imports.
• SEI collaborated with Athletics Kenya to implement the UNFCCC Sports for Climate Action Framework, which included installing air quality sensors in seven stadiums and sports facilities in Kenya.
• In Estonia, SEI developed a methodological approach and emissions factor database that enabled the Ministry of Defence to reduce its carbon footprint by 26% in 2021 compared to 2019.
• The Low Emissions Analysis Platform (LEAP) tool was used to support the development of Cambodia's first Clean Air Plan and Côte d'Ivoire's updated Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), with the latter projecting the avoidance of over 7,000 premature deaths per year.
• SEI's scientific output increased in 2022, with 160 peer-reviewed journal articles published, including four in top-tier journals such as Nature Sustainability and Science.
• The institute's funding base is diversified, with core funding from the Swedish Government and Sida representing approximately 25% of total funding, while the remainder comes from research council grants and international collaboration projects.
