Book // Nexus Planning Primer: Lessons from Case Studies
By Mathew Kurian, Mario Suardi, Reza Ardakanian, UNU-FLORES. — Based on the analysis of three case studies, this planning primer sets out to lay down certain generalizable nexus principles. It attempts to elaborate upon the links between decentralisation and results-based financing through the cases from Honduras, Tanzania, and the Philippines.
The key question that guides much of the analysis of case studies contained in this volume is to what extent a Nexus Approach that emphasizes synergies and interdependence across sectors and environmental resources can help advance sustainable development under conditions of global change: urbanization, demographic transformation and climate variability. The case studies discussed in this volume highlight the importance of planning structures and processes and autonomy of local authorities in agenda setting, programme implementation and monitoring and evaluation.
