Key recommendation in the report is 'integrated policies' for reducing climate and disaster risk, natural resource management, green energy /energy efficiency etc. Considering this is a challenging and a grey area for the governments in the Region, are there any examples /good practices of integrated policies?

Dear Madhavi, the report itself does not include any policy analysis. ESCAP analytical works complement each other to answer such questions. The next report of ESCAP – the Economic and Social Survey of Asia and the Pacific 2020 which will be launched on 8 April - will focus on government integrated policies for sustainable development to address specifically issues raised in this question.
