A recent policy brief prepared by International Institute for Sustainable Development and the Indigenous Clean Energy Network outlines key recommendations to ensure federal sustainable jobs programs and investments support Indigenous-led solutions in clean energy. “For sustainable jobs activities to support Indigenous self-determination, they should advance (1) joint governance and co-designed implementation (2) Indigenous definitions of sustainable jobs (3) Indigenous equity, and  (4) Indigenous workforce capacity building” To read the action pathways and recommendations ➡️ download the paper here: https://lnkd.in/gv92ewhc #sustainability #sustainablejobs #cleanenergy #climatesolutions

How IFC play their role in Developing countries (Part-03) 8. Promoting Sustainable Development Climate Action and Green Investments: The IFC is actively involved in financing green projects, particularly in renewable energy and energy efficiency. It also supports projects that have positive environmental impacts, such as sustainable agriculture and climate-smart infrastructure. Climate-Resilient Infrastructure: In countries that are highly vulnerable to climate change, the IFC works to create climate-resilient infrastructure that can withstand extreme weather events and ensure long-term sustainability. Conclusion The IFC plays a crucial role in the development of private sectors in developing countries by providing financing, advisory services, and promoting inclusive and sustainable economic growth. Its interventions help stimulate job creation, improve infrastructure, enhance financial inclusion, and foster resilience in developing economies. Through strategic partnerships, investments, and a focus on private sector development, the IFC supports the overarching goal of poverty reduction and economic transformation in the Global South.

Queensland's Clean Economy Jobs Bill: A Strategic Catalyst for Australia's Sustainable Future In the intricate landscape of global climate action, Queensland's introduction of the #CleanEconomyJobsBill marks a pivotal moment in Australia's journey towards a sustainable future. This legislation, committing to a 75% reduction in carbon emissions by 2035, represents not just a step but a leap in the direction of decarbonisation. It is a strategic piece in the broader puzzle of Australia's net-zero ambitions, illustrating how targeted state-level action can significantly contribute to national and global environmental goals. Much like a intricately engineered apparatus that requires each component to function in harmony for optimal performance, Australia's climate strategy necessitates each state to align seamlessly towards our collective goal. The bill bridges the gap between economic growth and environmental sustainability, aligning closely with Sustainable Development Goals 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) and 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). By fostering a clean energy economy, Queensland sets the stage for a future where job creation and carbon reduction go hand in hand, showcasing a model for balanced development that other regions can emulate. This legislation opens up a new phase for Australia, highlighting the potential to accelerate decarbonisation across sectors and communities. It sends a clear message to industries, investors, and policymakers about the viability and necessity of transitioning towards renewable energy and sustainable practices. What's Next? The next steps involve closely monitoring the implementation of this bill, understanding its impacts, and adapting strategies to ensure its success. It also means identifying opportunities for similar legislative frameworks in other states and territories, creating a cohesive and comprehensive approach to Australia's climate commitments. This move by Queensland is a call to action for all stakeholders in the climate action ecosystem to reassess and reinforce their strategies towards achieving #sdg7 and #sdg8 . It invites collaboration across levels of government, industry sectors, and communities to leverage the momentum this bill creates. As we navigate this critical juncture, the focus shifts towards innovative solutions, partnerships, and policies that can further Australia's leadership in sustainability and climate action. The journey ahead is challenging but filled with opportunities to redefine our economic and environmental landscape for a sustainable future.

Day 1 of #ecosperity and #philanthropyasiasummit was a whirlwind! But here’s a snapshot of the key themes that emerged : 1) To reap a harvest, the ground must be fertile. Policy and regulatory environments must be conducive for investors to plough funds into climate-friendly projects. Cheryl Tan brings you key highlights on this discussion point from the various panels: https://lnkd.in/gFykYYw4 2) if ASEAN sows the ground NOW, it can pay off — over US 300 billion — by 2030 David Fogarty reports on the sectors where most opportunities lie for ASEAN, as identified by Bain et al : https://lnkd.in/gsQy-fjW 3) Philanthropies play a critical role in helping to prepare the ground for scaled up investments, but for it to be truly “catalytic” and make an impact, they need to be matched with investments from other entities and play a role in influencing policy .
