Sustainable Development Goal 10

WRI assesses inequalities in opportunity, income and power, and offers recommendations to develop just, sustainable solutions. We focus on key systems: energy, water, cities, industry, agriculture, fisheries and forests (SDG 10.2, SDG 10.3, SDG 10.4). We also analyze the impacts of climate change and other environmental challenges on the most vulnerable communities and develop and promote approaches to climate action that would support the poorest (e.g. through redistribution of the revenues from carbon pricing).

Working with governments and civil society, WRI strives to involveunderrepresented groups, including women, youth, minorities and indigenous people, in decision-making(SDG 10.2, SDG 10.6). We champion the implementation of equitable climate actions that leave no one behind. OurLand and Resource Rights Initiativeshows how securing the land rights of rural and indigenous communities helps protect forests, ecosystems and livelihoods (SDG 10.2) as well as sequester carbon and ensure sustainable land management (SDG 13).

WRI is a founding member and serves on the steering group ofLandMark Map, the first online, interactive global platform to map lands that are collectively held and used by indigenous peoples and local communities. The maps help indigenous peoples and communities protect their rights and secure tenure over their lands.
