The links between climate change and development have been long recognized by various research communities  and have been assessed by Working Group Il in every IPCC Assessment Report since AR3 . For the AR 1-3 reports, these links were largely framed in the context of sustainable development, a concept that has been well described in the literature for decades . The AR5 introduced the framing of climate-resilient pathways, which narrowed the discussion around sustainable development to specifically address the contributions of mitigation and adaptation actions to the reduction of risk to development and the various institutions, strategies and choices involved in risk management . That assessment concluded that identifying and implementing appropriate technical and governance options for mitigation and adaptation as well as development strategies and choices that contribute to climate resilience are central to the successful implementation of such strategies. The AR5 also recognised that transformation of current development pathways in terms of wider political, economic and social systems may be necessary .
