eaSi-system - Framework for systematic SDG impacts assessment
SDG impact assessment
- Direct impacts and interlinkages
- To determine the direct impacts of the technology on the SDGs, we conduct a literature research. This literature search also forms the basis for the interlinkage assessment between the goals in the context of the technology. To determine in-depth interlinkages, a focus group method (see figure) has been developed. This method will also be translated into an online board game in the future.
- Value chain impacts
- To determine the impacts of the technology across global value chains, new value chain indicators are added to the model, such as:
- GHG emissions
- Air emissions
- Household surveys (employment & education)
- After that, we calculate the SDG effects from value chain indicators. For this, different indicators are used, such as:
- SDG indicators
- Proxy indicators
- Base indicators
- To determine the impacts of the technology across global value chains, new value chain indicators are added to the model, such as:
