The main socio-economic drivers of MESSAGE-GLOBIOM, [[Population_-_MESSAGE-GLOBIOM|population]] and [[Economic_activity_-_MESSAGE-GLOBIOM|GDP]], are presented in the subsections of this chapter.
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 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 MSG-GLB_oneill_new_2014) provide this overall scenario logic based on which the main socio-economic drivers, population and GDP, have been quantified. The subsections of this chapter describe how these quantitative drivers are used in MESSAGE-GLOBIOM.
