SUMMARY:Webinar | Role of universities in building long term climate capacities
DESCRIPTION:ICCCAD and PCCB Network Jointly Organizing Webinar on “Role of universities in building long term climate capacities” \n\n\nDate: 31 August 2021\n\nTime: 7:00 pm (Bangladesh time) / 03:00 pm (CET)\nWhere: Online (Zoom)\nRegistration\n\nAs efforts to implement the Paris Agreement move forward\, it is crucial to consider how the existing climate capacity building pattern can be changed so that funding earmarked for capacity building constitutes not just disparate expenditures without lasting effect\, but investments that build local capacities for decades and generations to come. Universities are tested institutions on education\, training\, public awareness\, research and technology development. They have a ripple effect across all segments and sectors\, reaching students (through curricula) to supplying graduates and experts\, thought leaders and policy makers. Even the small LDCs have at least one university\, with a certain level of multi-and-interdisciplinary expertise across disciplines\, including environmental science and natural resource management. Together with mainstreaming climate change education\, universities also can offer semester-long certificate programmes for stakeholders including government officials and NGO/private sector leaders. However\, universities\, particularly in Least Developed Countries (LDC) still face barriers which hinder the smooth transition of knowledge from generation to generation. In the road up to COP26\, it is crucial to share best practices and identify response actions to bridge capacity building gaps and needs for sustainable solutions.\nThis virtual workshop will focus on:\n(a) Role of universities in filling up the existing capacity gaps- Introducing LUCCC (LDC University Consortium on Climate Change)\n(c) Sharing country cases on effective use of universities as knowledge brokers\n(d) Existing barriers in preventing universities from effective capacity building\n(e) Bridging capacity building gaps and needs: Fostering collaboration between universities\, research institutions and other stakeholders

SUMMARY:Plenary Session on Finance and Investment
DESCRIPTION:About the Session:\nThis session will share good examples of finance and investment flows that allow building inclusive resilience society\, resilience of economic sectors\, of nature and of local communities against the adverse impacts of climate change\, trying to identify major gaps. This session will share examples of finance and investment by the Green Climate Fund\, the Global Environment Facility\, Multi-lateral Development Banks as well as from governments. It also aims to bring out some key messages and recommendations on actions required in the area of climate finance and investment to scale-up adaptation actions and enabling resilience for all.\nKey Messages: \n\nSignificant gap in financing and investing in adaptation actions is well recognised. The most vulnerable populations are not benefiting from current climate finance and investment. Only a fraction of adaptation finance that made available globally reach to them. Shift is necessary as this will not deliver intended results.\nTransformation is urgent and without shift from a time-bound that governed by a rigid results-based project financing “predict-and-act” approach to a wider approach to incorporate range of possible future climate risks and development scenarios\, it will not deliver intended long-term adaptation results.\n\nDownload Flyer\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Climate adaptation and resilience vision: what will success look like?
DESCRIPTION:This event will reflect on the current status of adaptation ambition and discuss what ‘success’ will look like at COP26. \n\n\n\nDate: Thu\, 11 February 2021\n\nTime: 16:30 – 18:00 (GMT+6)\nWhere: Online\, using Zoom\n  \n\nRegistration\n\nAbout this Event\nJoin this IIED and ICCCAD hosted online event on Thursday\, 11 February 2021 to hear expert perspectives on what climate adaptation and resilience success in 2021 looks like.\nThe impacts of climate change demand urgent action. There has been considerable attention on climate mitigation ambition in the lead up to COP26\, with some strong commitments coming through and more expected. But what about adaptation and resilience? As we move towards COP26\, what should our adaptation ambition look like and what more is needed in 2021 to drive a strong post-COP26 adaptation agenda?\nStrong adaptation commitments need to include a range of matters to have the best chance of success. This includes ensuring quantity and quality of financing and resourcing\, increasing transparency and accountability\, enabling locally-led actions by people and communities most affected by climate impacts\, and leveraging the power of nature to drive resilience for both local communities and the environment. The world is up against the clock to design and commit to strong and enduring adaptation commitments. How do we ensure we get there at COP26?\nFollowing on from the 1st Gobeshona Global Conference and the Climate Adaptation Summit\, this event will bring together speakers from government\, business and civil society to pitch what strong adaptation ambition at COP26 needs to look like\, what they are doing about it\, and how to judge what success looks like for us all. \nAbout the speakers\nSaleemul Huq (moderator) is the director of ICCCAD in Bangladesh\, and is an expert on the links between climate change and sustainable development\, particularly from the perspective of developing countries.\nSheela Patel is the founder and director of the Society for the Promotion of Area Resource Centres (SPARC) India\, which is based in Mumbai\, and works in partnership with the National Slum Dweller Federation and Mahila Milan.\nMike Barry is a change agent\, committed to helping business to prepare for and succeed in the great sustainability disruption that will wash through the economy in the 2020s. He is the former director of Sustainable Business at Marks & Spencer and currently a senior associate at the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership and Trustee at Blueprint for Better Business .\nClare Shakya is the director of IIED’s Climate Change research group. She has over 25 years of experience in development\, in climate\, energy and natural resources.\nThinley Choden is a social entrepreneur and consultant possessing a portfolio of eco-system careers in climate change and sustainability issues encompassing entrepreneurial leadership/solution building\, impact investing\, green economy\, climate governance\, and youth. She is a Climate Reality Leader.\nAdditional speakers TBC \nAbout the series\nThis is the fourth online event in a series hosted by IIED and the International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD) on the climate crisis and COVID-19 – working together for the change we need. In conversation with colleagues around the world\, from civil society organisations\, universities and governments\, this series will look at what we can learn to make us more ready for the new ways of working we need to tackle the climate crisis. \nAbout attending\nWebinars are online workshops that people can attend via the internet from their desk or portable internet device.\nThis webinar will use the Zoom video conferencing platform. For those who have not attended a Zoom webinar before\, please read this guide to participation as an attendee.\nThe event will be recorded to be distributed publicly afterwards.

SUMMARY:UN Food Systems Summit Action Track 5 - Public Forum
DESCRIPTION:Action Track 5 (AT5) – building resilience to vulnerabilities\, shocks and stresses- Public Forum\n\n\nDate: Thu\, February 4\, 2021\n\nTime: 7:30 PM – 9:30 PM +06\nWhere: Online\, using Zoom\n  \n\nRegistration\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nThe ambition of the 2021 UN Food Systems Summit is to launch a collective journey of transforming our food systems to give us the best possible chance of delivering on the 2030 Agenda. Everyone has a role to play in this. Only by coming together and challenging one another we can spark new ideas and create meaningful impact.\nNew and challenging risks are emerging in the already complex global food systems\, as evidenced by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic\, the impacts of which are skewed towards the world’s most vulnerable populations. In addition\, there are many other\, ongoing challenges\, including changing climate\, conflict\, fragility\, infectious diseases\, hunger that require solutions to build greater resilience within the current food system from production to consumption. To address this\, Action Track 5 (AT5) – building resilience to vulnerabilities\, shocks and stresses – is proposing actions to ensure that food systems\, which are affected by conflict\, environmental and economic shocks and stresses\, can maintain functionality\, recover from the effects of harmful events\, and improve to a better-off state. These actions include a focus on “productive disruption” in the context of global challenges – such as the health pandemics\, biodiversity loss and the global climate crisis.\nOur ambition is to ensure that all people are empowered to prepare for\, withstand\, and recover from instability and participate in a food system that\, despite shocks and stressors\, delivers food security\, nutrition and equitable livelihoods for all.\nOver the past weeks\, we have collected ideas for game changing solutions through a stakeholder consultation and different outreach channels. This process is being led by the AT5 leadership team: Chair Dr Saleemul Huq (ICCCAD)\, the Vice-Chairs Sandrine Dixson – Declève (Club of Rome) and Mike Khunga (SUN Youth Movement)\, the UN Anchor Agency – WFP\, and members of the Scientific Group. \nGet involved\nTo inform our next steps and stress test our first short list of options\, we would like to engage with you\, and further exchange so as to finalise a key list with detailed recommendations. We start the meeting by sharing the game changing solutions that the track has consolidated around 5 domains\, namely\, Environmental Resilience\, Economic Resilience\, Social Resilience\, Peace and Fragility and a cross-cutting domain. In this regard\, we would like your reflections on the following key questions:\n• Do the solutions proposed address food systems ‘resiliency’?\n• Do the solutions proposed have the potential to drive transformative change in food systems resilience across all geographies?\n• Do the solutions address key cross-cutting levers of change uch as human rights\, gender\, innovation and financing? \n\nRegister\nRegister: Please register your attendance here on Eventbrite prior to February 4.\nLive: This will be a live virtual forum taking place on Zoom. A link to join Zoom will be emailed to you prior to the event.\nRegistration
