Exploring political and socio-economic drivers of transformational climate policy
Early insights from the design of Ethiopia’s Climate Resilient Green Economy strategy:
This paper uncovers the opportunities and challenges behind the development of Ethiopia’s Climate Resilient Green Economy (CRGE) and explores the role of participation, incentives and interests in implementing transformational climate policy. In so doing, it first provides a brief review of relevant literature on transformation and an elaboration of analytical tools for assessing drivers of policy change. It then outlines the structure of the CRGE process before exploring key political and economic factors in the CRGE’s development. Lastly, a number of wider observations are made with implications for the delivery of transformational climate policy in other country contexts.
