On 1 July, 2014 the United Nations, in New York, launched what it called "the first and only comprehensive, global report on sustainable development": the Global Sustainable Development Report. Sections of the report discuss CLEWD as an integrated framework that help make decisions more efficient and consistent. The Climate, Land use, Energy & Water Development Nexus framework (CLEWD) was initiated by KTH-dESA staff (with partners). A global CLEW model (called GLUCOSE) was developed in collaboration between UNDESA and KTH researchers Constantinos Taliotis and Manuel Weirich. The GLUCOSE model was developed using the Open Source energy Modelling System (OSeMOSYS). The full model can be found below.
