Starting point

• Early research on co‐benefits: emphasized quantification

• Growing efforts to integrate that research into governance processes; this is critical for Asia

• Also seeing efforts to bring governance processes into research on co‐benefits; this is also critical for Asia

• Bringing co‐benefits into governance and vice versa can also help achieve achieveSDGs

Asian Co-benefits Partnership (ACP)

Launched in 2010 • to enable a variety of stakeholders to work together on co‐

benefits • to support the mainstreaming of co‐benefits into decision‐

making processes in Asia

Major Functions • Information sharing and knowledge management• Enhanced communication among ACP members• Awareness raising on co‐benefits in policies and projects• Strengthening of regional cooperation to promote co‐benefits

• Governments in Asia should make co-benefits a core element of

• low carbon strategies;

• air pollution policies; and

• sector-specific plans.

• to maximize cost-effectiveness. • Development agencies should make

co-benefits part of the evaluation criteria for financing low carbon, air pollution, and sector-specific projects in Asia.
