SUMMARY:Webinar | Responding to the Climate Crisis in Times of Uncertainty: A Clarion Call for Climate Leadership
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Global Stocktake at COP28 will evaluate how much progress has been made in the fight against the climate crisis and what more is needed to accelerate climate action forward. But global climate efforts are currently way off track\, and no one is at more risk than the vulnerable communities in the Global South who are facing a mounting debt crisis and have few resources to respond to escalating climate impacts. Without immediate leadership to drive deep emissions cuts and scale-up finance to respond to these impacts\, more people will be pushed into extreme inequality and poverty. \nWhat climate-vulnerable countries need at the COP28 climate summit in the UAE is a major course correction driven by a political response that will that rapidly decarbonize all sectors\, promote adaptation\, scale up climate finance and increase resources to address loss and damage. \nJoin the Allied for Climate Transformation by 2025 (ACT2025) consortium for a high-level webinar\, where policymakers and advocates will set clear expectations for a positive outcome at COP28 that meets the needs of climate-vulnerable countries. During the event speakers representing voices and expertise from all over the world will show where action is possible and underscore why a renewed sense of commitment to the Paris Agreement is needed to drive breakthrough solutions across the $100 billion finance commitment\, the global goal on adaptation\, loss and damage funding arrangements\, the new global goal on finance\, equitably phasing out fossil fuels and more. \nSpeakers:\n\nAna Toni\, National Secretary for Climate Change at the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change\, Brazil\nTina Stege\, Climate Envoy for the Marshall Islands\nCarlos Lopes\, Professor\, Nelson Mandela School\, University of Cape Town; Chair of the African Climate Foundation Board; Former Executive Secretary\, Economic Commission for Africa\nJaime de Bourbon de Parme\, Climate Envoy\, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands\nAni Dasgupta\, President and CEO\, World Resources Institute (introductory remarks)\nModerator: Sharanjit Leyl\, International broadcaster\n\n\nTimezones: 8:30-10 AM EST / 2.30 – 4:00 PM CET \nThe event will be hosted in English with simultaneous interpretation in Spanish and French. \nModality : Online  \nPlatform : ZOOM  \nClick here for registration\nConcept Note

SUMMARY:Community-led Adaptation: Water is Life
DESCRIPTION:Significant climate impacts have begun to rattle the communities around the world…heat waves\, wildfires\, cloud bursts\, cyclones\, floods\, droughts…While experts and policy-makers debate causes and mitigation models\, local communities\, largely the poor and vulnerable\, bear most of the consequences of such climate changes. They struggle to find local solutions to adapt vigorously and minimize adverse consequences on their livelihood and well-being.\nWater is at the centre of the impacts. Deforestation causes changes in rainfall patterns; chemicals used in intensive farming and urban over-usage (and wastage) have been causing depletion of groundwater\, with reducing recharge. Rapid commercialisation of coastal areas\, wet-lands and mangroves is further destroying natural water carrying systems. The pandemic of past 18 months has hugely disrupted the global-supply chain\, thereby raising questions about relevance of universal policies\, irrespective of contextual particularities.\nLocal communities in rural areas have been relying on their local resources to face the pandemic; they are using local technologies based on indigenous knowledge for water harvesting\, storage and distribution. The choice of crops\, grazing of cattle and seasonality of migration are influenced by their knowledge of water\, rainfall\, and equitable practices of governance of water in and by the community.\nAs many of these community-led models of water governance have been marginalized through pre-pandemic policies\, new efforts are required to reinvigorate community-led climate adaptation models. Fresh deliberations about policy and investment choices need to be undertaken simultaneously\, if countries like India want to build back fairer and sustainably in post- pandemic recovery.\nPRIA’s interventions in the past have focused upon integrating local traditional water practices with government’s programmes on water management. Mobilising Gram Sabha in PESA areas for community-led governance of natural resources\, including water and forests\, have been documented and disseminated by PRIA. Building local capacity of panchayats and civil society to co-govern water bodies by integrating these in local planning had also been undertaken in several states.\nLearning from practices being developed and followed in community-led adaptation to ensure that the ‘source of life: water’ is regenerated for future has become urgent. As part of its PRIA@40 conversations\, we are co-convening this dialogue in partnership with ICCCAD\, Bangladesh and UNNATI\, India on 1st October 2021 between 4 pm and 6 pm. The dialogue is aimed at discussing the following questions: \n\nWhat methods and approaches have been effectively deployed in many current examples of community-governed water arrangements?\nWhat lessons\, principles and strategies can be identified for more vigorous dissemination of community-led adaptation of water resources?\n\n \nProgram Design\n04:00- 04:10             Welcome and overview (Dr Anshuman Karol\, PRIA)\n(Moderator: Binoy Acharya\, Director\, Unnati\, Ahmedabad)\n04:10-04:25              Opening comments: Setting the stage \n\nProf Saleemul Huq\, Director\, ICCCAD\, Bangladesh\n\n04:25- 05:25             Panel discussion- Community led water management- Examples and case studies \n\nSwapni Shah\, Program Director\, Unnati\, Jodhpur\, Rajasthan\, India\nSanjay Joshie\, Executive Director\, Foundation for Ecological Security (FES)\, India \nA Vikranth Raja (IAS)\, Secretary\, Public Works Department\, Govt of Puducherry (tbc)\nJames Kharkongor\, Deputy Project Director\, Meghalaya Basin Development Agency\, Meghalaya\, India\nDr Sarder Shafiqul Alam\, Coordinator\, Urban Climate Change Programme and Country Coordinator\, ACCCRN-ICCCAD Bangladesh\nSusan Nanduddu\, Uganda\, Africa\n\n05:25- 05:35             Q&A\n 05:35- 05:50             Special Address: “Water: A Shared Commitment for Sustainable Management and Long-term Security”\nBharat Lal (IAS)\, Additional Secretary (JJM)\, Department of Drinking Water and  Sanitation\, Ministry of Jal Shakti\, Government of India (tbc)\n05:50- 06:00             Key takeaways and Ways Forward \n\nDr Rajesh Tandon\, Founder President\, PRIA\, India

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: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

SUMMARY:Webinar on Capacity Building to Address Climate Change in the LDCs
DESCRIPTION:International Centre for Climate Change and Development (ICCCAD) is going to organize Webinar on Capacity Building to Address Climate Change in the LDCs\n \nDate : Monday\, 10 Aug 2020\nTime : 04:00 pm-05:30 pm Bangladesh Standard Time (GMT+6) \n\nThe importance of capacity building to address climate change cannot be overstated. Globally\, about 70% of the developing country NDCs and 83% of the LDC NDCs submitted to the UNFCCC put capacity building as a condition to implement their NDCs. This need for capacity building support overwhelms other kinds of international assistance including for climate finance. Capacity building as a non-politicized agenda under the politically charged UNFCCC process is coming up as a very important issue.\n \nThe event will follow a brief presentation on capacity building\, followed with a panel discussion where designated discussants will focus on the importance of the long term capacity building needs for different stakeholders in the LDCs as well as how this can be achieved.\n \nRegister Here * \nFor any further queries\, please contact: Md Fahad Hossain (fahad.hossain@icccad.org)\n

SUMMARY:Webinar on Inequality and COVID-19: how grassroots communities are taking action
DESCRIPTION:IIED and ICCCAD Jointly Organizing Webinar  on  inequality in the face of COVID-19 and how grassroots communities are taking action\n\n\n\nDate: Thursday\, 2 July 2020\n\nTime: 16:00 – 17:00 BDT (GMT+6)\nWhere: Online\, using Zoom\n  \nRegistration\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nCOVID-19 has demonstrated stark social and economic inequalities\, with vulnerable and marginalised groups being disproportionately impacted. These vulnerable communities are at the frontline of any global crisis\, including the climate emergency.\nAs part of London Climate Action Week\, this online event on Thursday 2 July will bring together speakers working with social movements and grassroots organisations to examine inequalities in the face of COVID-19\, how grassroots organisations and communities are responding to multiple risks and shocks\, and what we can learn from these actions to better respond to global crises.\nThe coronavirus pandemic has exposed the inequalities for groups that are particularly vulnerable to disasters\, for example female-headed households\, children\, person with disabilities\, indigenous and ethnic minority groups\, landless tenants\, migrant workers\, older people\, and other socially marginalised groups.\nPeople living in densely populated informal settlements and indigenous communities fall into this highly vulnerable category\, with poor access to public services including health care\, water\, and sanitation. It is these communities that are also on the frontline of the climate crisis.\nThis online event will bring speakers from social movements and networks working with indigenous people\, people living in informal settlements and women working in the informal economy\, to reflect on the response of their communities to COVID-19.\nThe event will examine inequalities in impacts and coping strategies and discuss mechanisms to address inequality and manage future risks and shocks. How do we make room for innovation\, how do we become more accepting of risk and increased experimentation? And what we can learn that will help us tackle the climate crisis? \nAbout the panel\nSaleemul Huq (chair) is the director of the International Centre for Climate Change and Development (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. She is also chair of Slum Dwellers International (SDI).\nPrema Gopalan is the executive director of Swayam Shikshan Prayog\, a grassroots women’s collectives that enables women’s entrepreneurship and leadership in sustainable development.\nMartha Chen is a lecturer in public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School and international coordinator of the global research-policy-action network Women in Informal Employment: Globalizing and Organizing (WIEGO). \nAbout the series\nThis is the second online event in a series hosted by IIED and ICCCAD on the climate crisis and COVID-19 – working together for the change we need which will be hosted between June and October 2020. This event is also hosted working in partnership with ICCCAD and the Global Resilience Partnership and is also a part of the London Climate Action Week series of online events.\nIn 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.\nBuilding resilience\, capacity\, and adaptation have always provided a pathway to change – how can we use what we know and have achieved so far to ramp up our climate ambition? Drawing on lessons learned through capacity building\, advocacy\, and grassroots action\, how can we catalyse a different future? \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:Adaptation with a Human Face | Adaptation Futures Pre-Conference Webinar Series
DESCRIPTION:Day 2 – 29 April 2020: Adaptation with a Human Face\n16:00 – 18:00 IST | 20:30 – 22:30 AEST | 12:30 – 14:30 CET | 06:30 – 08:30 EST | 10:30 – 12:30 GMT\nThe webinar on 29 April 2020 will focus on ‘adaptation with a human face’. Climate change is often\nseen as a remote\, abstract problem expressed in terms of temperature change of mere degrees\, or in\nsea-level rises predicted decades into the future\, and is often lost in number and figures\, but it most\noften brings with it a human cost. Climate change is happening now and it is destroying livelihoods\,\ninfrastructure and communities\, forcing people to move from their homes\, towns and countries around\nthe world. The planet’s poorest and most vulnerable are suffering the worst effects\, despite having\ncontributed the least to its cause. Climate change is a primary threat to our natural environment\, but is\nmost essentially a human rights issue\, threatening livelihoods\, development and security. Through this\nvirtual event\, we aim to view climate change adaptation through a human lens\, furthering the\ndiscourse on safeguarding the rights of the most vulnerable people and on ensuring the equitable and\nfair sharing of burdens and benefits of climate change and its impacts. This dialogue will also\nhighlight that the urgent action needed to adapt to climate change must be based on community-led\nsolutions. \n\n\n16:30-17:35 Panel Discussion: Adaptation with a Human Face – Moving Towards Climate\nJustice\nClimate change is happening now\, and it is destroying livelihoods\, infrastructure and communities\, forcing people to move from their homes\, towns and countries around the world.
