Abstract
Greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise, our climate continues to change, and people continue to adapt to new environments [...]
Highlights
Climate compatible development (CCD), referred to as ‘triple wins’ or climate resilient development, is a relatively new policy concept [3] that offers the opportunity to deliver joint action on climate change adaptation, mitigation, and socio-economic development through a single initiative popularised through the Climate and Development Knowledge Network in 2010 [4]
An analyses of 201 project design documents funded through the CDM, the Adaptation Fund, the Special Climate Change Fund, and the LDC Fund found that only 37% reported evidence of CCD [13]
We return to some theoretical questions that remain unanswered: conceptually, what is CCD? Can triple wins be found? How are they generated? Who benefits, and at what cost? how do we evaluate triple wins? To this end, this Special Issue documents triple wins across scales, for the most part providing evidence from individual case studies
Summary
Climate compatible development (CCD), referred to as ‘triple wins’ or climate resilient development, is a relatively new policy concept [3] that offers the opportunity to deliver joint action on climate change adaptation, mitigation, and socio-economic development through a single initiative popularised through the Climate and Development Knowledge Network in 2010 [4]. The analysis of co-benefits has been hampered by a lack of careful monitoring, evaluation, and reporting, and has resulted in a lack of empirical evidence of CCD [9]. Most studies documenting CCD identify examples of CCD rather than systematically sampling and evaluating evidence [10,11].
