UNDP has convened over 130 stakeholders from Brazil’s federal government, the nine States of the Amazon, civil society representatives, research organizations and the private sector to discuss how #REDD+ can be implemented at different scales to ensure high-integrity and contribute to the country’s climate goals. The workshop – first of its kind in in several years – was led by the governments of Tocantins, through the State Secretariat of Environment and Water (Semarh Tocantins) and Acre, through the State’s Climate Change Institute (IMC), and counts with the participation of the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (Ministerio do Meio Ambiente) as a strategic partner. By combining the work at the level of the Amazon states with the federal policy agenda and bringing in the perspective from the private sector on nature-based solutions, the workshop looks at gathering different perspectives around diverse sources of REDD+ finance, harmonizing approaches to enhance integrity and discuss the upcoming law on a national emission trading scheme in Brazil and the role REDD+ - jurisdictional approaches and independent projects – can take in such framework. The workshop was organized between the UNDP Climate Hub and UNDP Country Office in Brazil and is funded by the Government of Norway, through NICFI - Norway's International Climate and Forest Initiative, as part of its support to the States in the Brazilian Amazon in accessing high-integrity carbon finance.

In times of crisis, it's crucial for civil and military actors to work together seamlessly. However, with different organizations using varying terminology and interpretation, confusion and misunderstandings can arise. Henrique Garbino, João Maurício Dias Lopes Valdetaro, and Jonny Robinson map out 59 organization-specific civil-military concepts from 44 entities, including governments, #NGOs, #multilateral organizations, and #armed groups. Check out their paper in the comments, along with Assad Raza's podcast on the Civil Affairs Association discussing their findings. Let's strive for clearer communication and cooperation in times of need. #CivilMilitaryRelations #HumanitarianCoordination #CIMIC #CMCoord

Announcement for Consultancy UNFPA Latin America and the Caribbean amd AECID Colombia - Cooperación Española en Colombia are committed to addressing structural inequalities and discrimination through the principles of "Leaving No One Behind" (LNOB) and "Reaching the Left Behind First." This involves increasing the statistical visibility of socially vulnerable populations based on their socio-demographic and territorial characteristics. Intersectionality is crucial in this process, as it reveals the compounded effects of multiple factors of inequality, providing evidence for informed decision-making and prioritization in public policies and development efforts. In this context, following the completion of the Population and Housing Censuses in Ecuador, Panama, and Belize, the UNFPA Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean is seeking to hire an individual consultant to develop three post-censal studies on the situation of indigenous peoples, based on the recent census data from these countries. https://lnkd.in/dXfZQ23w

Explaining Internet governance in under 60 seconds — what’s at stake and why it matters — in minimalist jargon isn’t easy. In my remaining year in this posting, my hope is to learn how to get better at producing video shorts like these that make tech policy accessible to generalist audiences. It has become increasingly clear that #tech diplomacy is the future of #diplomacy.

Last week we discussed the adaptation of the flexible GiveDirectly approach to #AnticipatoryAction flood-response programming in Bangladesh. The riverine #preparedness is of critical importance in the areas around Myanmar's three main rivers: Irrawaddy, Salween and Chindwin. The Emergency Preparedness team is looking at ways to scale up anticipatory and early action with the use of available technology, such as #geotargeting. 💡 #Innovation United Nations OCHA

Happy to share the publication of my article in Global Policy Journal at Durham University: "Gender Perspective in the Making: The Case of the Colombian Peacebuilding Process." 🔍 As we enter the second half of the 15-year implementation period, my research uses a conflict resolution framework to understand the barriers to successful and timely implementation of a gender perspective in Colombia. Key findings suggest that conceptual, technical, political, financial, and security hurdles are sustaining a violent and discriminatory system for women, ultimately impacting the effectiveness of the peace agreement. 🌎 I hope this article contributes to the ongoing discourse on gender and peacebuilding, shedding light on the complexities and challenges that need to be addressed.

#Data is critical for informing policy. However, in fragile and conflict affected situations, timely and reliable data is often difficult to collect. The latest The World Bank Poverty Assessment in #Yemen “Living in Dire Conditions” leverages various innovative data sources to build a broader understanding of how welfare is evolving. For example, measures on food consumption from phone surveys help to shed light on living conditions: https://bit.ly/452NupK #EndPoverty
