Greening the Human Development Index: Accounting for all pillars of sustainability<\/p>\n

Economic growth is an engine for development, writes Chuluun Togtokh, Sustainable Development Institute at National University of Mongolia<\/strong>. However, there are two key issues from sustainability point of view that need to be addressed; that of the equal distribution of wealth among populations within countries, and whether economic growth itself can be green. In order to address these issues, I am proposing a new sustainability index composed of wealth, equity and environment… <\/span>More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/a> Current discussions about measuring progress after Rio+20 and the establishment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are in danger of focusing mainly on the developing world, writes Derek Osborn, President, Stakeholder Forum.<\/strong> There needs to be equal emphasis on establishing goals for the sustainability transition in the developed world and the emerging economies… <\/span>More<\/span><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

A Youth Intervention<\/p>\n

<\/a> As we approach the end of the March negotiations, I worry that we are taking steps backwards in a number of areas, not forwards, and I am fearful that we have failed to grasp fully the task that lies ahead, writes Lloyd Russel-Moyle, European Youth Forum<\/strong>. Yesterday, we presented to the Executive Coordinators three main points that are the top of our agenda: Participation that matters, Governance with teeth, and a Rights-Based Approach.

Outreach is a multi-stakeholder magazine which is published daily at Rio+20 Intersessional and Preparatory Meetings. The articles written are intended to reflect those of the authors alone or where indicated a coalition\u2019s opinion.
