FOREWORD Foreword by Angel Gurría, OECD Secretary-General The 2015 edition of Better Policies for Development comes at a critical time. In 2015 – the target year of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) – the international community is forging a new global framework for sustainable development. The post-2015 development agenda offers an unprecedented opportunity to make extreme poverty history; to place the world on a sustainable development path; and to ensure well-being and prosperity for all while protecting the planet. The universal, transformative and integrated nature of the new agenda has wide-ranging implications. The international community, including the OECD and its members, will need to adapt approaches, policy instruments and working methods to achieve the new Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. This report introduces the concept of Policy Coherence for Sustainable Development (PCSD) and shows how it can support the achievement of the new Goals. PCSD is a policy tool to systematically integrate the economic, social, environmental, and governance dimensions of sustainable development into policymaking, and ensuring that they are mutually supportive. This year’s edition is focused on green growth strategies. Central to achieving the SDGs, realising green growth calls for the application of PCSD to key policy areas, such as water, climate, energy, infrastructure, economic growth and development. Better Policies for Development 2015 highlights the actions involved in aligning separate – and sometimes opposing – policy objectives. The post-2015 agenda, which encompasses the new SDGs, is the result of a vast public consultation. In this spirit of inclusiveness, this year’s edition of Better Policies for Development includes contributions from key thinkers, academics, and representatives from civil society who have helped to sharpen our understanding of this new agenda and its implications for our work. The OECD’s work on policy coherence for sustainable development is one important element within a wide-ranging OECD effort to help implement the SDGs globally. I hope readers in all countries find our Better Policies for Development series to be useful as they design and implement policies that advance sustainable development. Angel Gurría, OECD Secretary-General BETTER POLICIES FOR DEVELOPMENT 2015: POLICY COHERENCE AND GREEN GROWTH © OECD 2015 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Acknowledgements This report has been prepared by the OECD Policy Coherence for Development (PCD) Unit in the Office of the Secretary-General, under the overall supervision of Ebba Dohlman, Senior Advisor, and with analytical support from Ernesto Soria Morales, Carina Lindberg and Tom Neylan. It is based on inputs from several distinguished key thinkers, national experiences from member and partner countries, and diverse perspectives from civil society and the private sector. The report also draws on analysis carried out by our colleagues in various OECD directorates and could not have been done without their advice, as well as on findings from individual projects, such as A“ ligning Policies for the Transition to a Low- Carbon Economy”. Credits also go to Marco Mira d’Ercole in the Statistics Directorate and Alexander Guschanski, Carlo Schmid intern in the PCD Unit, for compiling all inputs to the Organisation-wide mapping exercise to identify OECD indicators, policy instruments and dialogue platforms to inform the implementation of the SDGs; to Tom Neylan for reviewing and editing all external contributions; and to Katie Taylor for formatting the report. Anne-Lise Prigent, Susana García-Lorenzo and Cécilia Paymon in the Public Affairs and Communications Directorate have provided the editorial and production support services needed to realise this publication. 4 BETTER POLICIES FOR DEVELOPMENT 2015: POLICY COHERENCE AND GREEN GROWTH © OECD 2015 TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of contents Executive Summary . 9 Acronyms and Abbreviations. 11 Chapter 1 Insights on the transition to a universal development agenda . 15 Transitioning to a universal development agenda beyond 2015 . 16 Policy coherence for a stronger world economy, by Catherine Mann, OECD Chief Economist . 16 The new development agenda demands policy coherence, by Amina J.

Abstract Options and possibilities for lesbian parents have changed fundamentally since the turn of the millennium. A legal change in 2003 enabled a same-sex couple to share legal parenthood of the same child. An additional legal change, in 2005, gave lesbian couples access to fertility treatment within public healthcare in Sweden.

    Studies in Polish Linguistics vol. 12, 2017, issue 4, pp. 221–240 doi:10.4467/23005920SPL.17.011.8243 www.ejournals.eu/SPL Kamil Stachowski Jagiellonian University in Kraków An Experiment in Labelling Draw-a-Map Maps Abstract Apart from offering a contribution to perceptual dialectology of Poland, the paper discuss- es an experiment in which two groups were set a map drawing task. One group was given a map on which major cities were marked while the other a map with the main regions. The two maps combined from their answers have proven to be nothing alike, suggesting that this one detail in the design of the study can dramatically influence its results, and as such it needs to be paid particular attention and further investigated. Keywords perceptual dialectology, draw-a-map, methodology, Polish language Streszczenie Artykuł jest przyczynkiem do dialektologii percepcyjnej Polski, ale przede wszystkim dyskusją wyników eksperymentu, w którym dwie grupy poproszono o wypełnienie map. Jednej przedstawiono mapy z zaznaczonymi głównymi miastami, drugiej – z głównymi regionami geograficznymi.
