SUMMARY:7th Asia-Pacific Climate Change Adaptation Forum
DESCRIPTION:About APAN\nThe Asia-Pacific Adaptation Network (APAN)\, developed and launched by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in 2009 under the Global Adaptation Network (GAN)\, is the first regional adaptation network. \nAbout the 7th Asia-Pacific Climate Change Adaptation Forum\nHosted by the Ministry of the Environment of Japan (MoEJ)\, Government of Japan\, together with the APAN Secretariat at UNEP\, the 7th Asia-Pacific Climate Change Adaptation Forum will be held virtually on 8-12 March 2021 under the theme: Enabling Resilience for All: The Critical Decade to Scale-up Action\, sharing learnings from actions towards climate-resilient development. Resilience is the unifying theme of the Forum\, which is structured around four thematic “streams” focusing on (i) inclusive resilience; (ii) nature-based resilience (iii) economic sector resilience; and (iv) communities and local resilience. \nResilience embodies the desired end-point of adaptation\, applicable to natural\, human\, economic\, and engineered systems. Adequate enabling conditions through which resilience may be built on\, maintained\, and strengthened are identified as a) climate governance; b) planning and processes; c) science and assessment; d) technologies and practices; e) finance and investments. \n\nFull Programme\nRegistration\n

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.
