The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development calls to leave no one behind. But the two major crises facing the global economy (climate change and rising inequality) affect the poorest within a country and least developed countries the most. Such global challenges underscore the importance of integrated policymaking to move towards a climate-resilient, green and inclusive world. This also calls for mainstreaming of the Sustainable Development Goals across policies, such as through fiscal policies supportive of social protection, decent jobs, and sustainable consumption and production, and financial reforms supportive of climate risks assessment and the development of markets for green financial instruments.
