National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

ABSTRACT Neighbourhood Sustainability Assessment Tools (NSATs) are widely used to support sustainable urban planning, development assessment and neighbourhood‐scale decision‐making. However, existing tools continue to exhibit persistent limitations, including uneven coverage of sustainability dimensions, limited governance integration, weak stakeholder

Domestic service robots in dynamic homes often rely on memory‐intensive, quickly outdated 3‐D maps. This work presents HEMDSR, a four‐layer, task‐oriented model that reasons about object‐room and object‐object spatial belonging relationships, encodes observation viewpoints, and builds local 3‐D maps just‐in‐time.
