1. Socioeconomic projections for climate change research

This lecture introduces the theoretical framework behind the income and poverty projections employed in the context of the so-called Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs). The SSPs are employed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to frame scenarios for future socioeconomic developments at the global level, and combine projections of demographic and economic variables.

2. Socioeconomic scenarios and climatic change: Methodological approaches

This lecture presents the existing methodologies employed to create long-run internally consistent projections of GDP per capita, absolute poverty and institutional variables for climate change research. We emphasize the importance of assessing model uncertainty in conditional predictions of socioeconomic variables.
