Report

This research programme managed by the Dutch Research Council (NWO) aims to encourage research focusing on Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) interactions and policy interventions in developing countries. It is part of programme line 2 of the Dutch Research Agenda (NWA) programme, and it is initiated by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA).

The aim of the research programme is to gain new insights into the interdependencies between the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the way in which they can influence each other - positively or negatively - and what and their effects and impact is on policy interventions.

Three themes are elaborated within the programme.

  1. Governance and decision-making regarding the SDG process: underlying questions focus on knowledge and advice on SDG policy coherence in a multiform context in developing countries.
  2. Synergy and trade-offs between individual SDG objectives, especially in the field of interventions to promote food security and the agro-sector.
  3. Climate change as a security risk: climate is often seen by policy makers as a threat multiplier for conflict and instability. But under what circumstances does this apply or not and how can early warning / early action processes in peace missions be improved?
