Environmental Sustainability

Environment is linked to…
• Poverty
• Security and peace building
• Gender
• Human Rights
Linkages:Poverty Environment
• Livelihoods: Poor people rely disproportionately on ecosystem products for their basic needs
• Improved resilience: Poor people are more vulnerable to natural disasters
• Health: Environmental hazards account for 1/5th of the overall burden of disease worldwide (WHO)
• Economic development: A healthy environment sustains employment in key sectors (agriculture, energy, forestry, fisheries, tourism)
The environment must be better managed to deliver pro-poor benefits (water supply, food, fuel..)

Gender Environment• Women and men understand and use environmental
resources differently AND are affected differently – Who are the users, protectors, managers of natural resources? – Who grows what types of crops? – Who have access to cash payments?– Who makes decisions regarding the use of land?
• Women and girls uniquely vulnerable to environmental degradation: deforestation, water shortages
• Despite role and know-how, women's contributions often undervalued and ignored
• Gender differences in the control of land a critical point for analysis and action
Women’s involvement and leadership in environmental programmes leads to multiple benefits in economic development, family health and community strength
No explicit recognition of a right to environment… but widespread acceptance of…1. the exercise of human rights requires basic environmental
health, and vice versa2. human rights and environmental sustainability are inter-
dependent, complementary and indivisible
The right to “life and a right to a standard of living adequate for health and well-being” – UDHR, 1948
The right to “the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health" through "the improvement of all aspects of environmental and industrial hygiene“ - ICCPR 19xx & ICESCR 19yy
The right to “freedom, equality and adequate conditions of life, in an environment of a quality that permits a life of dignity and well being.” - Stockholm Declaration on Human Environment (principle 1)

Ecosystem ServicesBenefits people obtain from ecosystems:
• Provisioning services: products of ecosystems (fresh water)
• Regulating services: benefits from regulation of climate, water, some human diseases
• Cultural services: nonmaterial benefits (spiritual, recreational, aesthetic)
• Supporting services: for all other ecosystem services (production of oxygen, soil, habitat..)
Mainstreaming ES in UNDAF ≠ “one size fits all”
Approach must be adapted to each country …
