- Like the countries of the world in general and North Africa in particular, Algeria faces many ecological challenges. Algeria has set targets for 2025 in the field of spatial planning in which it integrates the concept of sustainable development. Algerian Sustainable Consumption and Production National Action Plan (SCP-NAP) was developed under the coordination of the Ministry of Environment and Renewable Energy under the EU-funded Switch Med programme, with advisory services and technical support from the United Nations Environment Programme. The Plan is part of Algeria’s efforts to achieve Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. The SCP-NAP (SDG12) entitled “42 Actions to Develop Sustainable
Consumption and Production 2016-2030″ was developed in Algeria through nationally owned multistakeholder processes. Algeria has embarked on the path of sustainable development since the beginning of 2000, through several laws and regulations, as well as strategic measures such as the National Strategy for the Environment (SNE), the National Action Plan for Environment and Sustainable Development 2035 (PNAE-DD), and programs for energy transition and the development of renewable energies.
