The accelerating pace of urbanization, coupled with changes in land-use patterns and the exacerbation extreme climatic events—marked by heightened unpredictability severity, particularly regions Global South—necessitates a thorough reevaluation urban governance management frameworks. In response to these challenges, it is essential for strategies integrate local socio-economic specificities while navigating inherent complexities issues, leveraging contextually appropriate resources within sustainability paradigm. this regard, contextualizing incorporating Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into planning frameworks crucial advancing sustainability. However, significant obstacles hinder their effective integration at scale, fast-evolving, resource-constrained settings. This study seeks address critical gap systematically examining barriers SDG sub-Saharan Africa. For purpose, Moundou, Chad, used as representative case study, reflecting both challenges opportunities region. A hybrid methodology underpins research, combining in-depth interviews key development stakeholders, detailed review strategic documents aligned SDGs, semi-structured questionnaires capture diverse perspectives. results reveal that institutional dimension constitutes 38.46% identified including limited capacity long-term planning, lack expertise, inadequate multisectoral coordination, among others. addition, economic socio-cultural dimensions each represent 23.08% barriers, encompassing issues such dependence on external funding, high cost green technologies, low public awareness, resistance change communities. Finally, data access ranks last, accounting 15.38%. To overcome implement mechanisms strengthen capacities, promote cross-sectoral collaboration, enhance cultivate culture adaptability innovation Furthermore, improving accessibility reinforcing financial are vital addressing comprehensively.

The application of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) measures can improve the ability natural resources supply, providing material basis for necessary guarantees sustainable development. However, there is frequently a lack scientific decision-making that incorporates local and social needs when planning NbS measures. In response to different types provide variety resource supply remedies, this study proposed methodology which applied Yangtze River Economic Belt (YREB) in China, considering four major five elements, are assigned steps according "where-what-how" framework. results showed indicative sites implementation distributed three parallel stripes pattern across area, among them, water food were two most needed covering up 80% area area. Combined with estimated 2030, socio-climatic development pathways lead changes prioritized exported by sites. Our approach be used plan decisions multiple compensation capacity where it needed.

The ecosystem services (ESs) and landscape patterns (LPs) in a region have marked impact on human production life even play an important role the achievement of regional Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Given limited consideration LPs ESs SDGs current research, it is especially crucial to provide comprehensive targeted policy support for sustainable development less developed areas from environmental perspective. Utilizing Lincang National Innovation Demonstration Zone as case study, we evaluation index system at county level City. This was established based extensive field surveys, visits, data collection conducted with local government departments relevant organizations between 2021 2022. Our study found that there significant spatial heterogeneity relationship or each county. Therefore, regulation optimization should not adopt one-size-fits-all approach; rather, measures be implemented specific SDGs. Additionally, dual-factor interaction enhancement explaining SDG. implies promoting synergy can effectively drive certain Overall, this provides critical scientific decision-making references governments realization construction more beautiful Lincang.

Sustainable landscape management requires accurately identifying the trade-offs and synergies among ecosystem services (ES). Three commonly utilized approaches to quantify ES trade-off/synergy relationships include space-for-time approach, background-adjusted temporal trend approach. However, similarities differences these three in same area remain unclear. Thus, we conducted a case study rapidly urbanizing Yangtze River Delta region, comparing based on annual data spanning from 2001 2020 for 12 types of ES. We found that: (1) detected by exhibit significant divergence, with only 1.45% consistency 66 pairs relationships. (2) All can overlook trade-offs, miss synergies, erroneously detect interactions where none exist. (3) The mechanisms contributing misidentification include: neglecting underlying assumptions different approaches, insufficient time interval length, short series data, aggregation effects, non-linear changes ESs, lag effects relationships, others. Our results indicate that each has its own advantages disadvantages Prior selecting an approach between ESs specific area, careful consideration availability characteristics chosen type, thorough examination uncertainties are imperative.

Urban green infrastructure (GI) plays a pivotal role in enhancing residents’ well-being. While most existing studies explore the link between GI and human well-being primarily through lens of urban ecosystem services (UES), moderating impact physical activity (PA) has garnered relatively little attention. This study extends current theoretical models by integrating PA into UES framework, proposing that influences mediating roles both PA. Taking Shanghai as case study, we empirically test this hypothesis identify mediation pathways A survey 419 residents was conducted to quantify quality GI, contributions PA, overall level Structural equation modeling then employed validate proposed relationships. Our findings indicate (1) positively with correlation coefficients 0.8 0.31, respectively; (2) natural elements landscape design within significantly enhance UES, while presence artificial facilities effective management practices boost frequency To promote well-being, it is recommended Shanghai’s strategies prioritize supplementing them sports recreational facilities. approach would strengthen multiple provide more opportunities for engage Overall, our advance understanding from support adoption human-centered GI.
