Five-dimensional Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Action Framework Toward Sustainable River Basin Management Under Climate Change
doi: 10.14456/mijet.2023.23
Keywords:
environmental impact, global warming, SEA guidance, United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), water crisis, watershedAbstract
Although strategic environmental assessments (SEA) for river basin management are being implemented in many countries, there is considerable variation in approaches, institutional arrangements, impact assessment tools, scope, and procedures. Moreover, the extent to which SEA addresses sustainability and is anchored in the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) depends on various factors, particularly the impacts of climate change. This research proposes an SEA action framework for sustainable river basin management under climate change with the integration of the SDGs’ five dimensions People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace, and Partnership (5Ps). A selection of SEA tools to assess the impacts of climate change along the 5Ps is presented. A systematic literature review and content analysis are carried out to establish the SEA action framework and identify the SEA tools A systematic literature review and content analysis was conducted, e.g., of peer-reviewed research publications and publicly available information and guidance documents, to establish the SEA framework for action and identify SEA tools. The proposed framework provides more comprehensive and applicable SEA for sustainable river basin management and for assessing the potential impacts of climate change.
