A green growth approach looks at the three broad dimensions of “value” to society
1
Social Inclusion Environmental sustainability
Economic growth and development
Aggregate growth
Equity and fairness Inherent value of nature
… and it recognizes the deep interdependencies between them
2
Green growth o Efficient in use of natural resources and eco-‐system services
o Minimizes impacts of pollu@on on growth
o Avoids impacts of natural hazards on growth
Inclusive growth o Op@mizes human capital to improve produc@vity
o Provides basic services sufficient to support value-‐add ac@vi@es
o Formalizes property rights for marginalized popula@ons Social Inclusion Environmental

Green inclusion
Green inclusion o Minimizes environmental impacts on quality of life
o Op@mizes value of natural patrimony for en@re society
o Enables “tradi@onal” nature-‐based ways of life
Aggregate growth
Equity and fairness Inherent value of nature
Inclusive green growth focuses on a number of “win-‐win-‐win” benefits across all three dimensions

o Energy efficiency (power, buildings, transport, industry, etc.)
o Land produc@vity (soil quality and reten@on, etc.) o Water efficiency (reduced leakage, op@mal alloca@on, etc.)
o Reduced air pollu@on and health/produc@vity impacts
o Reduced land contamina@on and health/produc@vity impacts
o Reduced water contamina@on and health/produc@vity impacts
Increase Resource producDvity
Reduce costs of polluDon
o Flood/Disaster resilience (e.g. early warning, natural flood protec@on)
o Heat/Drought resilience (e.g. monitoring and communica@ons systems, integrated water management)
Reduce costs of climate variability

PotenDal catastrophic ecological impacts (long-‐run)
• Increased frequency off extreme storms
• Longer at ho6er heat waves
• Large rises in sea level
• Collapse of eco-‐systems and bio-‐diversity
• Deser@fica@on
• Damage to human health, loss of life, destruc@on of livelihoods
• Damage to natural environment and permanent loss of natural patrimony
• Damage to infrastructure, loss of produc@vity, and loss of “sunk cost” assets
Reducing the risk: • Reducing
Greenhouse gas emissions
• Conserving the natural environment
Building resilience:
• Specific adaptation measures
• Broad economic, environmental and social coping potential
An inclusive green growth approach also ensures a country protects itself from significant future risks
1. “Demand driven” approach, tailored to the country’s own economic and development objectives through green growth
2. Independent, trusted advisor to governments
3. Advice based on robust analysis and evidence
4. Strong local presence, embedded in the partner government
5. Collaboration and capacity building with local partners
Principles for our in-‐country work:
