💡 THINK PIECE: How can Global South nations navigate the industrialisation-sustainability trade-off?

@STIPROTZ findings show that:

1️⃣ Economic growth and environmental sustainability are not mutually exclusive
2️⃣ The green industrialisation capacity of different countries is highly uneven
3️⃣ Comprehensive strategies ensure crucial development objectives are not compromised
4️⃣ Prevailing development finance mechanisms fail to adequately address historical responsibility

This visual piece summarizes some of the questions, findings and recommendations that guided the work of our partners in our inaugural Global South Perspectives, an initiative focused on centering #GlobalSouth viewpoints in policy research to reshape the sustainable development agenda.

Explore the sneak peek as we prepare to launch soon – and stay tuned!

🇹🇿 While a total lockdown might be necessary for developed countries, in developing countries, it might be helpful to protect businesses [...]. People are more likely to die from hunger due to reduced earnings than from the disease itself, says @STIPROTZ.
