SUMMARY:Toward Locally Led Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:\nToward Locally Led Adaptation: Fusion of Local and Scientific Knowledge and the Role of Universities in Strengthening Community Resilience \n\nDate: 10 March 2021 \n\nTime: 14:00-15:30 (GMT+7)\nWhere: Online\n  \n\nRegistration\n\n\nDescription \nAgainst the backdrop of the current disconnect between local efforts and national frameworks and the urgency for locally led adaptation\, the session will discuss the importance of fusing traditional knowledge and scientific knowledge\, and of translating highly technical climate data and information into meaningful and simple user-friendly climate services products for local communities. A gender balanced panel representing different sub-regions of the Asia-Pacific and local level will highlight the gaps and challenges in doing so and suggest the steps forward to bring this into action. Finally\, the panel will explore what role universities\, given their multi-and-interdisciplinary pool of expertise and their connection with field-based research\, can play in building the capacity of local stakeholders to enable them as leaders of ‘locally led adaptation’ in strengthening community resilience. The session will be followed by an open discussion with the audience to bring in their perspectives and ideas. \n  \nModerator \nProf. Saleemul Huq\, Director\, ICCCAD \n  \nSpeakers \nMs. Ugyen Yangchen\, Lecturer\, College of Natural Resources\, Royal University of Bhutan\, Bhutan \nHon.
