GEO-7 will assess the solutions pathways and policy approaches that can be used to transform the human systems of energy, food and materials/waste as well as their supporting economic and financial models that are at the root cause of the triple planetary crisis together with land degradation. This first workshop on solutions pathways intends to come up with methodological development that will be used to do so. This workshop will run in parallel to the Modelling and Scenarios Workshop that intends to provide modelling and scenarios analysis of the socio-economic impacts (possibly both positive and negative) of different solutions pathways.
Meeting objectives:
- Develop a shared understanding of the objectives of the solutions pathway section
- Review and agree on a methodology for the solutions pathways analysis
- Discussion of roles and responsibilities in the further development of the methodology
- Develop a work plan for methodological development
- Establish collaborative approach with the outlooks/modelling/scenarios group
- Discuss potential gaps in expertise to be filled and suggest additional experts to be involved
