Modelling the interaction between climate mitigation and income inequality: the use of integrated assessment models and the case of India

This chapter discusses the main challenges to be solved in terms of integrating national inequality and redistribution in climate modelling; and considers the research on revenue recycling mechanisms from micro-macro level studies on climate policies. It explores the case of India, based on the availability of data, the prevalence of inequality today and the importance of mitigation and in particular of energy system decarbonization. The chapter further adds to the literature that uses integrated assessment models (IAMs) to address sustainable development goals (SDGs) and their links. By linking environmental and socio-economic systems, IAMs are in a good position to assess the long-term prospects of the 2030 Agenda. The chapter stresses how the interaction between climate policies and inequality needs to be sufficiently considered if a policy maker has the objective to mitigate global climate change and inequality simultaneously as in the SDGs.

Poverty, inequality, and growth: the East Asian experience

This chapter focuses on the poverty, inequality and growth trends in four low and middle-income countries in East and South East Asia – namely the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, and Mongolia, in the decade post-2000. Having understood the landscape of social policies, including health and education in the four East Asian countries, it discusses how successful have the countries been in reducing poverty and inequality. The chapter assesses social protection systems, including access to health and education in East and South East Asia from two key parameters: level of public expenditure on social protection, health and education, and coverage or universalization of different programs. The main argument against universal coverage is the high public expenditure. Higher levels of economic growth are associated with increasing inequality levels. In a study by the Centre for Equity Assessment, they assess how progressive a fiscal policy is in order to reduce poverty and inequality within the tax-transfer framework.

Governing the interlinkages between the SDGs: conclusions

This conclusion presents some closing thoughts of the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book explores challenges in implementing the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development that result from the interdependent and interlinked nature of its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). It presents a method to extract and harness existing knowledge about interlinkages between different aspects of a selected subset of SDGs. The book provides an overview of current evidence from Integrated Assessment Modelling, which are the state-of-the-art modelling tools in the climate community. It discusses a perceived conceptual flaw in SDG interlinkages thinking. The book also presents various criteria for assessing national SDG governance mechanisms regarding their potential to promote coherent and effective implementation of the SDGs. It elaborates on the concept of multilevel metagovernance. As a framework, the concept is concerned with the creation of actionable mechanisms to spur collaboration between actors from different levels of authority.

Les hors-la loi ont enlevé plusieurs compteurs d'eau de la Société Nationale des Eaux du Bénin (SONEB) à Dogoudo et dans plusieurs autres quartiers de la commune d'Allada, département de l'Atlantique.

Un instituteur à la retraite résidant au quartier Dogoudo dans la commune d'Allada a constaté une coupure d'eau dans la soirée du lundi 27 février 2023 alors qu'il se trouvait sous la douche. Celui-ci est allé vérifier le compteur installé hors de la concession lorsqu'il a remarqué que tous les compteurs d'eau de la Société Nationale des Eaux du Bénin (SONEB) ont été volés.
L'instituteur s'est rendu à l'agence de la SONEB le lendemain. Selon les confidences du chef d'agence à Prosper Awo Vignon, instituteur à la retraite, « plusieurs autres personnes étaient déjà venues se plaindre pour la même cause ».
