The document discusses sustainability in development projects. It defines sustainability as continuing benefits after donor assistance ends. Key factors for sustainability include country strategies, donor coordination, participation of stakeholders, integration with local management, and attention to social and cultural issues. The document also outlines tools and a cycle for sustainability analysis, strategy, and risk assessment to deliver lasting benefits.
The document summarizes the key findings of the 2012 CDP Water Disclosure report. It finds that while awareness of water-related risks is increasing among Global 500 companies, more action is still needed. Specifically, it notes that over half of respondents experienced water impacts in the past 5 years, but board oversight and goal setting on water issues remains relatively unchanged. It also finds that collective action approaches are becoming more widely recognized as effective strategies to address water challenges.

From Strategy to Practice: The Tonle Sap InitiativeOlivier Serrat
Consumptive use of the Tonle Sap's natural capital is intense. The Tonle Sap Basin Strategy promotes an approach that conserves nature and offers the promise of sustainable development. Informed by principles that fix attention to sustainable livelihoods, social justice, and a basin-wide approach, the development objectives are to foster, promote, and facilitate pro-poor, sustainable economic growth; access to assets; and management of natural resources and the environment.
Effective Community Engagement for Promoting Responsible and Sustainable Inv...Ethical Sector
This document discusses responsible and sustainable investment. It defines responsible investment as considering environmental, social and governance factors and long-term returns. Responsible investment takes a wider and longer-term view of risks and opportunities. There are six principles for responsible investment, including incorporating ESG issues into analysis and policies, seeking disclosure on ESG issues, and reporting on activities. A framework for responsible investment consists of five pillars: a transparent legal framework, long-term planning, leveraging investments for development, promoting human rights, and managing environmental risks. The goal is mutually beneficial long-term relationships that benefit communities and investors.
This document discusses partnerships for sustainable development in Small Island Developing States (SIDS). It outlines that effective partnerships require integrated and participatory development planning at local, national, regional, and international levels. At the national level, challenges to participatory governance include political cultures dominated by single parties and dependency on the government. At the regional level, lack of private sector participation and involvement in global issues are problems. Managing development assistance and bridging the technology divide also present difficulties for SIDS. Recommendations include establishing consultative councils for development planning and building civil society participation in regional governance.

It is tough for them to examine and grasp the connections between financial elements and sustainability targets. Assignment help in Economics services is significant in supporting economics students as they struggle with challenging topics like Sustainable Development Objectives. They give them the resources, direction, and aptitude expected to succeed in their coursework.
The document discusses national strategies for sustainable development (NSSDs). It summarizes that in 1999, the OECD launched a project with 8 developing countries and donors to provide guidance on effective NSSDs. The project revealed how NSSDs can improve integrating social, environmental, and economic objectives into development processes through coordinated mechanisms and ongoing processes rather than comprehensive plans. The challenges are implementing these processes and ensuring private sector participation in NSSDs to fuel sustainable development through responsible business practices.

1) The document discusses findings from field studies in several countries on enhancing the sustainability of development programs. It examines dimensions of sustainability like institutional sustainability, household resilience, environmental sustainability, and structural change.
2) Key factors for sustainability identified include appropriate development models, infrastructure, microcredit, community-driven approaches, and clear exit strategies.
3) Successful elements in some countries included early sustainability strategies, community participation in design, capacity building, and diversifying livelihoods. Specific challenges to sustainability in sectors like environment, infrastructure and agriculture were also noted.
This document summarizes trends in sustainability and integrated reporting in 2013. Key points include: sustainability has become mainstream and boosts profits; companies are setting tough sustainability goals and reaping benefits from sustainability reporting; reporting is becoming more integrated across financial and non-financial metrics; and materiality or issues most important to investors are becoming a priority in reporting. Implementation of integrated reporting requires organizational change and will take 3-5 years for many companies.
1) In 1992, Agenda 21 called for countries to develop national strategies for sustainable development, but provided no guidance. By 2002, most countries had still not introduced strategies.
2) In 1999, the OECD launched a project with 8 developing countries to clarify what effective national strategies entail. This involved stakeholder dialogues and reviews of existing sustainable development processes.
3) The project resulted in the first definition of a national strategy for sustainable development as a "coordinated set of participatory and continuously improving processes" that seeks to integrate economic, social and environmental objectives.

Scaling up climate finance requires addressing several key challenges. Replication of projects needs to consider balancing mitigation and adaptation funding as well as modifying projects to local contexts. Information sharing and strong institutions are important to understand what approaches are most effective and implement climate actions. Reducing risks, costs, and delays can help attract more private sector finance for climate solutions. Future work should explore improving adaptation finance, using monitoring and evaluation to identify best practices, and incentivizing greater climate investment through a new international agreement.
Green financing: Practices, Measures and BarriersVasanthagopal R
The document discusses green financing practices, measures, and barriers. It defines green financing as investments related to sustainable development projects like renewable energy and pollution control. Common green financial instruments include green bonds, loans, and public-private partnerships. Measuring the sustainability of the financial system considers resilience, efficiency, efficacy, and transparency. Barriers to green financing include a lack of long-term financing, regulatory issues, lack of data and standards, and a shortage of bankable projects. Overcoming these challenges will be key to achieving climate change goals.
Innovative Financing Mechanisms and Effective Management of Risk for Partners...CORE Group
The document summarizes the Utkrisht Development Impact Bond in India, which aims to improve quality of care in private maternity facilities. It discusses how impact bonds can mobilize private capital for development by lowering investment risk. The Utkrisht bond provides funds for accrediting 360-440 private facilities over 3 years. Facilities receive quality improvement support and investors are repaid based on the number of facilities accredited. Early lessons show facilities are motivated to improve if it grows their business and they receive support meeting standards. The bond also provides a framework for continuously improving the project and managing risks between partners.

Similar to Sustainable Benefits Into The Future For The Recipient. (20)
4. What is Sustainability?
The continuation of benefits after major assistance from
a donor has been completed.
Key points to note;
Focus is on sustaining the flow of benefits into the future
rather than sustainable projects.
Projects by definition are not sustainable they are a
defined investment with a start and finish date.
13/06/12 SESHAA 4
5. The Main Issues;
Country Strategies; sustainability of benefits needs to be
individually assessed.
Projects and the sector approach; maintenance of
benefits after project completed, sector approach
provides home government funding to the particular
sector i.e. Fire Service.
Donor coordination; donors should promote the same
agenda.
Mechanisms that promote donor coordination will assist
in sustainability.
13/06/12 SESHAA 5
6. Key Factors;
Partner Governments can have a significant impact on
the sustainability of project benefits.
Policy Environment, should be implemented within wider
policy environment , policy framework should be
supportive of project objectives.
Projects that fit with Partner Government Policies have
much better prospects for sustainability having
institutional support both during and into the future.
13/06/12 SESHAA 6
7. Donor Policies;
Planning Horizon, 3 to five years, open ended
commitments not appropriate, phased implementation
supportive.
Design process should include the partners.
Team Selection both donor and partner skills used.
Monitoring and reporting should include the movement
toward sustainable outcomes.
Operation and maintenance costs should include local
capacity to meet the costs.
13/06/12 SESHAA 7
8. Participation;
Critical factor is the role of the stakeholders, those
directly concerned with the project; Partner
Government , implementing agency and those who
stand to benefit.
Stakeholders both men and women should actively
participate in influencing duration.
Donor led and top down projects generally fail to bring
sustainable benefits because they do not lead to
stakeholder ownership and commitment.
Ensure that ideas for projects are demand led, clearly
define who/which groups are expected to participate.
13/06/12 SESHAA 8
9. Management and Organisation;
Projects which integrate with and build on local
management structures have a better chance of
sustainability.
Expatriate assistance in projects have a great influence
on project sustainability.
Project design must be phased and allow for some
flexibility in implementation.
13/06/12 SESHAA 9
10. Finance;
In some countries financial sustainability is unlikely in
the medium term.
Recipient contributions in cash or kind (personnel) are a
sign of commitment.
User pays, people are willing to pay for a good service,
this should be encouraged to sustain the service once
the project has finished.
Private sector involvement is of great benefit.
13/06/12 SESHAA 10
11. Awareness and Training;
Appropriate Training for identified target groups is a key
strategy for achieving sustainable benefits.
Effective Training should educate and also motivate.
Training should always support new technology to
support sustainability.
One off funded training activities will prove inadequate.
13/06/12 SESHAA 11
12. Social Gender and Culture;
The delivery of sustainable benefits can fail because of
a lack of attention to social, gender and cultural issues.
If the benefits are to affect behavioural change, then
longer term planning horizons will be needed.
In some areas a greater participation by women is key
to long term sustainability.
Cross cultural awareness is required if we are to deliver
sustainable solutions.
13/06/12 SESHAA 12
13. Political and Economic Factors;
Political Stability, projects do not operate in isolation
from the world around them, sustainability is more
difficult to achieve in an unstable political
environment.
Level of development, this will influence the
prospects of sustainability, avoid complicated, over
ambitious and expensive interventions.
Economic shock and natural disasters, these will
frustrate any sustainable strategy, where possible a
contingency strategy should be in place.
13/06/12 SESHAA 13
14. Sustainability Activity Cycle;
Sustainability Analysis; the identification and analysis of
the key factors that are likely to impact either positively
or negatively, on the likelihood of delivering sustainable
benefits.
Sustainable Strategy; the sustainable analysis will lead
to a sustainable strategy, this will define the benefits to
be sustained.
Sustainability Risk; sustainability is related to risk
because many of the risks to achieving the objectives
are also risks to achieving sustainable benefits.
13/06/12 SESHAA 14
15. Sustainability Tools;
Sustainability Analysis at Identification/Preparation
Risk Analysis.
Strategy Matrix.
Strategy for Asset Maintenance.
Contracts.
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
Phase Out Strategies.
