The financial support effects on the progress of the Sustainable Development Goals 

Resumo: This research investigates the impact of investments on the global progress of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Financial support is instrumental in helping developing countries drive progress toward the SDGs. Using a panel data analysis, we explore the relationship between financial support, country income, and SDG scores. Additionally, we conduct exploratory data analyses for a sample of countries to further detail how investments influence specific SDGs. Our findings reveal there is a positive impact of both income and invested values on the SDG score. We also highlight sectors and SDGs that need more attention and the limitations of available data.

Unfolding the complex interdependencies between the Sustainable Development Goals, Humanitarian Operations, and Climate Change 

Resumo: This paper aims to unpack the interconnections between the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 13) and the other SDGs to leverage policies to mitigate and adapt to the impacts of Climate Change (CC), emphasizing Humanitarian Operations (HO) policies. We developed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to systematize the insights and compile an exhaustive list of existing paths connecting the CC-SDG-HO triad. The main results indicate that CC is rapidly intensifying the frequency and severity of climate-related disasters – such as droughts, water scarcity, floods, fires and biodiversity loss – which have a profound impact on human health and well-being.

Unveiling the Complex Interactions between Humanitarian Operations and SDGs 

Resumo: Disaster frequency has increased, pressuring for more Humanitarian Operations (HO). Disasters and HO are intrinsically linked to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a global commitment to a sustainable future for all. Amid this scenario, this research analyzes the interplay between disasters, HO and SDGs using a quantitative systems dynamics model.

Analyzing the interplay between climate change, humanitarian operations, and the Sustainable Development Goals: A conceptual framework 

Resumo: Climate Change (CC) refers to long-term changes and global weather patterns. The consequences of CC include intense droughts and floods, among other disasters. These disasters significantly affect the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and they are inextricably intertwined. Also, these disasters increase the demand for more assistance policies and, consequently, for more Humanitarian Operations (HO), seeking to balance short-term responses with long-term economic and social development interventions. In this context, this paper aims to map the interconnections between SDG 13 and the other SDGs to leverage policies to adapt to the impacts of CC, emphasizing HO policies. Given the problem’s interconnection and dynamically complex nature, we adopt system dynamics as a methodological approach. The findings are encapsulated in a causal loop diagram (CLD) based on the CC-SDG-HO triad, which captures the main interconnections among variables.

Mapping Climate Change, Humanitarian Operations, and the Sustainable Development Goals Interplay

Resumo: Climate change exacerbates disasters, significantly hindering efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs). When disaster impacts exceed the capacity of affected communities to recover, humanitarian operations (HO) provide short-term responses and long-term development interventions. Therefore, this research aims to unpack the interconnections between SDG 13 (Climate Action) and the other SDGs to leverage policies to combat the impacts of Climate Change (CC), emphasizing HO policies. Considering that the CC-SDG-HO triad is interdependent and dynamically complex, we adopt System Dynamics as a methodology. The findings are encapsulated in a causal loop diagram. We are undertaking a Systematic Literature Review to document insights from papers and compile an exhaustive list of existing paths connecting the CC-SDG-HO triad. The results contribute to the knowledge of sustainable development and humanitarian operations, which will serve as a foundation for follow-on studies.

Mapping the linkages between Climate Change, Humanitarian Operations, and the Sustainable Development Goals

Resumo: Climate Change (CC) refers to long-term temperature changes and global weather patterns. The consequences of CC include intense droughts and floods, among other disasters. These disasters significantly affect the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and they are inextricably intertwined. Also, these disasters increase the demand for more assistance policies and, consequently, for more Humanitarian Operations (HO), seeking to balance short-term responses with long-term economic and social development interventions. In this context, this paper aims to map the interconnections between SDG 13 and the other SDGs to leverage policies to combat the impacts of CC, emphasizing HO policies.

Mapping the linkages between Climate Change, Humanitarian Operations, and SDGs

When disaster impacts exceed the capacity of affected communities to recover, humanitarian operations provide short-term responses and long-term development interventions. Therefore, this paper aims to unpack the linkages between SDG 13 (Climate Action) and the other SDGs to leverage policies to address the impacts of climate change. Given the problem’s interconnection and dynamically complex nature, we adopt system dynamics as a methodological approach. The findings are encapsulated in a causal loop diagram, which feeds into a simulation model to support policy design.
