In this chapter, we de ne the vision used for the scenario analysis of GEO-6, taking a long-term perspective, beyond 2030. This vision uses the SDGs as an overarching, integrated set of goals and targets to start from, selecting key environment- related targets, and, where relevant, further quantifying these with targets from related MEAs or the scienti c literature. This long-term vision addresses the theme of GEO-6 – Healthy Planet, Healthy People – by focusing on global environmental targets linked to the ve themes discussed in Part A (State of the Global Environment), and related multidimensional poverty and health targets. In Chapters 21 and 22 the existing scenario literature is assessed, to allow discussion of future developments with respect to these targets and the pathways towards achieving them.
