Sustainable development and climate change

Mitigation and adaptation to the climat crisis

In the face of the climate crisis and most urgent need to address it on all levels of governance the BSSSC commits to promote the related issues and work for solutions in economic, social and environmental areas to help mitigate the problem and achieve sustainable development in all its dimensions. The BSSSC will follow the EU and UN work and the related documents and reports in the field.

 

The BSR is highly vulnerable to climate change and the capacities of all stakeholders must be used to design effective policies on mitigation and adaptation through a bottom-up and multi-sector approach as well as through in-depth information campaigns.
