Some insights into how the System of Environmental-Economic Accounting (SEEA) can contribute to promoting the use of strong sustainability indicators: doi.org/10.3897/onee... #sustainability #naturalcapital #ecosystemaccounting #environmentalhealth @odirilwes.bsky.social
A conceptual flow diagram illustrating the assessment and reinforcement of strong sustainability. It begins with two blue rectangles labeled “SEEA” and “SDGs GBF”. These two sources provide "Strong sustainability keywords" and "Strong sustainability indicator criteria," respectively, feeding into a central beige oval labeled “Is strong sustainability considered?” This oval connects with a rightward arrow to another beige oval labeled “Reinforce strong sustainability perspective,” which is supported by “Academic strong sustainability indicator frameworks” indicated along the arrow.

‼️Our new Nature Sust paper from @futureecoafrica.bsky.social @sallyarchibald.bsky.social @odirilwes.bsky.social 🦥Just ahead of #SBSTTA-27 & #COP30 🐘6 Principles for getting Natural Climate Solution right in #Africa 🎣 Link👇🏽 www.nature.com/articles/s41... @sthlmresilience.bsky.social

Six principles to get natural climate solutions right in Africa - Nature Sustainability
Nature-based climate solutions tend to overlook Africa’s diverse contexts and development priorities. We propose six guiding principles centred on the aspirations of African peoples, recognizing the cultural connection of communities to their environments and the role of biodiversity in sustaining livelihoods and identities.
