Abstract
- To accelerate progress toward sustainable development, Debt Sustainability Analyses (DSAs) should be made more compatible with countries� national plans to reach the SDGs and climate goals. A new study by Matthew Martin makes the case for why and how to adapt DSAs to National Sustainable Development Plans and National Defined Contributions / Adaptation Plans to confront the climate crisis. The paper addresses three key challenges: adapting DSAs 1) to overall SDG spending needs, 2) to meet urgent environmental crisis including climate change, nature and biodiversity collapse, and the rising incidence of natural disasters, and 3) to meet social crises produced by rising inequality and poverty, as well as pandemics. Mindful of the need for feasible and immediately actionable recommendations, the study has been based on close consultation not only with experts in civil society, but also with representatives of governments and international organizations.
