This White Paper "Climate Mitigation and Adaptation with Eco-Village Development (EVD) Solutions in South Asia" analyses and presents climate-effects of EVD solutions, using existing cases from villages in South Asia. EVD combines village-level developmental planning with local sustainable solutions to give villagers climate-resilient supplies of energy, water, agricultural products, and other necessities and livelihood improvements, depending upon the choices of the villagers.

Policy making is required in cases in which a public good needs to be either maintained or created, and private or civil initiatives cannot deal alone with this. Policy making thus starts with a phase of problem identification and determining whether there is a problem that needs to be dealt with. Rapidly evolving contexts exert influence on policy makers who have to take decisions much faster and more accurately than in the past, also facing greater complexity. There is a need for a method that lowers the lead time of the exploratory phase of the policy cycle.

GGGI developed these Green Energy Development Guidelines to assist member countries in developing strategic green energy development plans and implementation road maps at every stage of the GGGI value chain. They serve as a reference for government officials, GGGI staff and consultants, development partners, and relevant stakeholders who are working on areas
related to or looking to develop a project on green energy. They provide strategies to take toward green energy development, as well as processes to put these strategies into practice.
