“…In principle, given the vastness of the territory and high radiation levels, solar farming could constitute an alternative to agriculture in Azraq area. However, upfront investment costs for switching from agriculture to solar farming are expected to be high and a pilot project found several regulatory obstacles (Al-Saidi, 2018).

This book is a fresh, timely and thought-provoking analysis of this challenging dimension, in particular the policy and institutional innovations required. It is a very welcome and valuable resource." Ambassador David Donoghue, Permanent Representative of Ireland to the UN 2013-2017 and co-facilitator of the UN negotiations on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development "The book provides an excellent analysis of governance mechanisms and policy processes that effectively promote sustainable development. This is extremely important for advancing action on the SDGs, despite the Covid-19 pandemic and increasing pressures of climate change." Prof. Dr. Imme Scholz, Co-Chair of the UN Independent Group of Scientists for the Global Sustainable Development Report 2023 and Co-Chair of the German Sustainability Council (RNE) "This book helps to deepen our understanding of the governance and policy innovations that are needed to support policy coherence across sectors and actors at different levels to deliver on Agenda 2030." Alina Rocha Menocal, Principal Research Fellow at the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) and Director of the global Thinking and Working Community of Practice (TWP CoP) GOVERNING THE INTERLINKAGES BETWEEN THE SDGSGoverning the Interlinkages between the SDGs: Approaches, Opportunities and Challenges identifies the institutional processes, governance mechanisms and policy mixes that are conducive to devising strategies of integrated Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) implementation.The book edited by Anita Breuer, Daniele Malerba, Srinivasa Srigiri, and Pooja Balasu bramanian examines the dedicated policies targeting the SDGs, as well as political and institutional drivers of synergies and trade-offs between the SDGs in selected key areasboth cross-nationally and in specific country contexts. Their analysis moves beyond the focus on links between SDG indicators and targets. Instead, the book takes advantage of recent evidence from the initial imple mentation phase of the SDGs and each chapter explores the question of which political-institutional prerequisites, governance mechanisms, and policy instruments are suited to accelerate the imple mentation of the SDGs. The findings presented are intended to both inform high-level policy debates and to provide orientation for practitioners working on development cooperation. This volume will be of great interest to practitioners and policy makers in the field of sustainable development, as well as academics in the fields of sustainability research, political science, and economics.Anita Breuer is a senior researcher at the German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS), leading the inter-disciplinary research project "Implementing the 2030 Agenda: Inte grating Growth, Environment, Equality and Governance". Her primary research interests involve sustainability governance, democracy promotion, accountability, and participatory pol itics, as well as the impact of digitalization on political behavior and collective action.Daniele Malerba is a senior ...
