On 17 June, the Lutheran World Federation launches an online tool designed to help churches monitor, assess and coordinate their vital development, humanitarian and human rights work.

Community support for the protection and management of the Mutsamudu River Basin is absolutely critical for the success of the demonstration project and a key component of the project is the establishment of a catchment management committee, comprising stakeholders with key water responsibilities and interests.
A water management plan has been developed following comprehensive consultations with stakeholders.
Bolstering these interventions is an inclusive public awareness campaign that is engaging the people of Mutsamudu in an effort to keep the river clean.
This campaign has quickly gained momentum, with students from the university joining and the army joining local residents in river clean-ups, tree planting excursions, workshops and seminars.
Excitingly, the project’s strong outreach component has attracted the attention of the Comorian diaspora – Comorans living in France, Mayotte and the USA who are now contributing their energy and enthusiasm to the community’s efforts to better manage the Mutsamudu catchment, improve water quality and combat disease.

GOAL 7: AFFORDABLE AND CLEAN ENERGY
Ensuring universal access to affordable electricity by 2030 means investing in clean energy sources such as solar, wind, and thermal.
In Moldova, a UNDP-supported project promoted resilient water management practices with rural entrepreneurs to address increasing water shortages in agriculture. Agriculture is the key economic sector in Moldova, and is facing the risk of increasing water shortages.
In the Sîngerei district in Moldova’s north, a reconstructed reservoir uses snowmelt and rainfall to bolster surfacewater storage ponds, ensuring that crops can also be irrigated during heat waves and droughts. This secure water source benefits 3,500 residents in Tiplesti village and residents of neighbouring settlements – including Mr. Burcovschi and his peach and apricot groves.

"Today’s global food system has major weaknesses: nearly 800 million people are left hungry, one-third of the human race is malnourished, over half of some crops never make it to the table, and the planet is ravaged from environmentally unfriendly agricultural practices. As the global population is expected to soar exponentially in the coming years, we must examine ways to feed more people efficiently and sustainably, while combating climate change."
The 2016 Global Food Policy Report provides an in-depth look at major food policy developments and events in the past year, and examines key challenges and opportunities for the coming year.

GOAL 16: PEACE, JUSTICE AND STRONG INSTITUTIONS
To promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, the SDGs aim to significantly reduce all forms of violence, and work with governments and communities to find lasting solutions to conflict and insecurity. Effective and just institutions are necessary for tackling environmental challenges, including the degradation of ecosystems and climate change.
UNDP’s climate change adaptation work in Europe and Central Asia commenced in 2005 with the Lake Balaton Integrated Vulnerability Assessment, Early Warning and Adaptation Strategies project in Hungary.
The project established a comprehensive online information system for the lake, applied a customised soil and water assessment tool to help local water authorities assess hydrology and climate impacts. This model has since been successfully replicated and adapted for several other Central European lakes.

GOAL 9: INDUSTRY, INNOVATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE
Investment in infrastructure and innovation are crucial drivers of economic growth and development. Technological progress is also key to finding lasting solutions to both economic and environmental challenges, such as providing new jobs and promoting energy efficiency. Promoting sustainable industries - and investing in scientific research and innovation - are all important ways to facilitate sustainable development.
