This policy brief by the International Institute for Sustainable Development examines how to pragmatically integrate sustainability into Ukraine's reconstruction, focusing on energy efficiency in the residential sector.

This discussion brief by the Stockholm Environment Institute examines the intersection of air pollution, gender inequality, social equity, and poverty in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). It highlights how socio-economic disadvantages increase exposure to pollutants and energy poverty, while noting that air pollution disproportionately affects vulnerable groups such as the elderly, children, and Roma populations. The document advocates for policy responses that address structural drivers of inequity, improve energy efficiency in social housing, and utilize disaggregated data to protect the most vulnerable.

This fact sheet describes the development of the Environmental Strategy and Action Plan of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH ESAP 2030+), a project supported by the Stockholm Environment Institute and funded by the Embassy of Sweden to align the country's environmental frameworks with European Union policies.
