Socio-economic drivers are typically informed by a scenario narrative that in qualitative terms describes the overall logic behind the scenarios. In the case of MESSAGE-GLOBIOM 1.0 the Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSPs, see O’Neill et al., 2014 [[CiteRef::MSG-GLB_oneill_new_2014]]) provide this overall scenario logic based on which the main socio-economic drivers, [[Population_-_MESSAGE-GLOBIOM|population]] and [[Economic_activity_-_MESSAGE-GLOBIOM|GDP]], have been quantified. The subsections of this chapter describe how these quantitative drivers are used in MESSAGE-GLOBIOM.

Socio-economic drivers are typically informed by a scenario narrative that describes in qualitative terms the overall logic behind the scenarios. In MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM, the Shared Socio-economic Pathways (SSPs, see O’Neill et al., 2014 MSG-GLB_oneill_new_2014) provide the overall scenario logic with which the main socio-economic drivers, population and GDP have been quantified.

SSP Narratives

Narratives have been developed for the SSPs (O'Neill et al., 2015). These descriptions of alternative future societal developments span a range of possible worlds that stretch along two climate change-related dimensions: mitigation and adaptation challenges. The SSPs reflect five different development pathways for the world that are characterized by varying levels of glboal challenges (see Riahi et al., 2017)
