Technical report

Climate change is the defining challenge of our time. It will affect the poor and vulnerable first and foremost. The world’s response to climate change today will bear directly on the development prospects of a large part of the world’s population, particularly those who contributed least to the cause of climate change. Integrating climate change considerations in national and sectoral decision-making processes and in development assistance programmes is critical to meeting this challenge. Mainstreaming climate change, by integrating the risks and opportunities it poses, can help ensure that our efforts today continue to advance development even in the face of climate change.
