Focus area 9. Industrialisation
Very few proposals housed in the e-Inventory contain goals which directly address issues of industrialisation. Nonetheless a small number of proposals do contain targets which touch upon this focus area, covering issues such as science and research, the reduction of pollutants and waste in industry, and the transition to clean industrialised economies.
Goal | Applied science and research is performed in the service of the public good [34] | Interlinkages | Thriving lives and livelihoods [35] | Interlinkages |
Targets | Applied science and research agenda's are publicly defined: they are the result of democratic processes, allowing all stakeholders to contribute to the definition and to a prioritization of agenda's or projects to be (publicly) funded. | | Targets on clean air that build on World Health Organization guidelines for pollutants such as black carbon. | |
Reductions in emissions of stratospheric ozone-depleting substances in line with projections from the Montreal Protocol. | |
Structural solutions are implemented to free R&D activities from short term economic/financial (growth) imperatives. | | Critical loads for manmade chemical compounds and toxic materials. | |
Sustainable practices for extraction, use and recycling of scarce minerals and metals and other natural resources. | |
Goal | Promote the transition to a green and inclusive economy [36] | Interlinkages |
Targets | Create green jobs to account for 20 per cent of national employment between 2015 and 2035. | | Increase by 50 per cent the number of people who receive loans to engage in a productive activity between 2015 and 2035. | |
Develop a clean industry accounting for 30 per cent of national industrial production between 2015 and 2035. | | Half the number of people working in the informal sector between 2015 and 2035. | |
Reduce by 50 per cent the proportion of unskilled unemployed youth between 2015 and 2035. | | Increase the share of renewable energy in the energy mix to 30 per cent, between 2015 and 2035. | |
Reduce by at least half rate of unemployment and underemployment of young university graduates by 2035. | | Ensure access for all to modern and efficient energy, notably in the agricultural, building, industry and transport sectors, by 2035. | |
Double private investment growth rate between 2015-35. | | Ensure mainstreaming of environmental issues in all public policies (sub-regional, national and local) for the sustainable management of the environment by 2035. | |
Half by 2035 the rate of degradation of natural resources and biodiversity. | |
