Ppt climat south communication 20130909 rev_mm_splitclimasouth
The document discusses the findings of a survey conducted for a communication strategy on climate change in South countries. The main findings include: a lack of dialogue between stakeholders; climate change is not a priority for governments focused on other issues; awareness needs to be raised at local levels; there is a strong need to strengthen dialogue and simplify messaging; information dissemination needs improving; and low-income, women and less educated groups are underrepresented in national climate discussions. The preliminary conclusion is that addressing these findings will help develop an effective communication strategy.

Proposal on empowering young entrepreneurs
under “KENA” program along with UNCDF
July, 2023
Introduction
The youth employment crisis is a global development priority. Over 10 million youth enter Africa’s labour market each year, yet only 3 Million formal jobs are available, making it an uphill battle for most youth to secure decent employment. According to GSMA 2020, there are about 1 billion people between 15 and 24 years of age in the world’s less developed regions. As they grow into adulthood, they will need support from many sources – including parents, trusted mentors, and social networks and a variety of financial and non-financial services.
Kena is a program designed by EYEA to understand, support and empower young entrepreneurs in their entrepreneurship journey. Kena aspires to capacitate young entrepreneurs on the required skills and make their business ideas/products ready for financing. Kena will address the existing entrepreneurship challenges in the academic context which has little to no contribution in preparing the young entrepreneurs to prepare the youth and realize their vision. To achieve this there is a need to prepare
contextualized training, coaching and mentoring programs. The program objective is to provide service packages that enhance trusts between entrepreneurs and financial institutions. Target groups of kena are young entrepreneurs from different areas like university students and others aged 18 to35. The priority sectors are Agriculture, Health, Tourism, Manufacturing, Education and ICT. The overall aim of Kena is prepare potential entrepreneurs’ business ideas investment ready and provide networking opportunities for accessing finance and related exposure at Zelela monthly policy advocacy and networking platform. Thus, this proposal aimed to arrange and work on the area of activities on young entrepreneurs of the association, based on shared objective CBE and UNCDF.

The document compares the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and analyzes what has changed between the two frameworks. Some key points:
1. The process of establishing the SDGs was more inclusive than the MDGs, involving more countries like Brazil, China, and members of the G77 bloc.
2. The SDGs have more goals that cover additional issues like inequality, economic growth, and environmental sustainability. However, some criticize it as having too many goals and no clear priorities.
3. The SDGs embrace the principle of leaving no one behind and being universal for all countries, whereas the MDGs primarily targeted reducing poverty in poor
A REDD Revolution in Copenhagen? Lanchbery200110theREDDdesk
The document discusses the outcomes of the 2009 UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen (COP15) regarding reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD).
1) The COP15 negotiations resulted in an agreement on some key REDD principles and scope, including social and environmental safeguards, but key issues around financing, monitoring and implementation remained unresolved.
2) The overall COP15 outcome was a political accord separate from the formal negotiation tracks, leaving many decisions around REDD and other issues to be continued at future meetings.
3) While imperfect, the agreed social and environmental safeguards for REDD were seen as an important step, establishing principles around indigenous rights, biodiversity conservation and participation.
This document provides an overview of power analysis and mapping for advocacy and influencing work. It discusses why power matters for development and change, different forms and spaces where power is exercised. It also provides examples of power analysis maps and discusses how to develop a theory of change. A theory of change explains how and why a desired change is expected to happen in a particular context, what actions need to be taken to influence relevant stakeholders, and what assumptions are being made about how change happens. Developing a theory of change involves defining the desired impact, identifying outcomes and strategies, and mapping the context and key players to determine how change can be influenced and sustained.
Re-imagining and Re-organizing Economic Action for DegrowthAndré Reichel
This document summarizes a session on reimagining and reorganizing economic action for degrowth. It begins with an introduction and list of presenters. It then covers several topics related to degrowth, including: the limits to growth; the social impacts of the current economic system such as increased anxiety; the need to redefine work, well-being and prosperity; and the concept of degrowth including reducing production and consumption within ecological limits. It also discusses the need for democratic socialist planning to adequately address issues like climate change, and provides some initial ideas about what such a system may involve, while acknowledging there is still much to develop. Throughout it emphasizes the importance of reorienting economic activity and values towards well-being,

This document discusses the role and characteristics of think tanks. It provides examples of think tanks like Cogito, a Swedish Green think tank founded in 2005. Cogito aims to further sustainable development through broad public debate, constructive ideas, and exploring viable political alternatives. It seeks to critically examine dominant paradigms and power structures. The document also discusses how Cogito explores green political thought and praxis, addresses issues like peace and conflict resolution, and the intersection of environmental issues and social welfare systems.
The document discusses using research to promote the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It provides an overview of projects conducted by Dr. Ebele Mogo to apply research on Canadian children with disabilities. These include rapid reviews and policy dialogues in British Columbia to identify priority areas and engage stakeholders. Other projects include a scoping review on interventions for childhood disability and a systematic review on inclusive leisure participation. The document reflects on challenges in bridging research and the SDGs and fostering ecosystems for knowledge co-production to drive action.
This document discusses the importance of normative judgments in debates about development. It addresses viewing development as a multi-dimensional process aimed at improving lives by managing resources.

More information at: www.oecd.org/statistics/lac-well-being-metrics.htm
Dr Catherine Butler presented this paper at the Royal Geographical Society's annual conference (London, UK - August 2016), and at the 3rd Energy & Society conference (Leipzig, Germany - September 2016).
This presentation discusses the critical importance of the “Communication for Development” (ComDev) approach in ensuring that the voices of all stakeholders are heard in the decision-making process that will be needed in Agricultural Adaptation to Climate Change, but especially illustrates how ComDev can engage those whose livelihoods are most vulnerable and most dependent on natural resource bases. Illustrative examples will be drawn especially from Small Island Developing States (SIDS) in the Caribbean, including the “Voices for CC” initiative in Jamaica as well as best practices in ComDev from RARE Radio in St. Lucia, Toco Radio in Trinidad, among others.

The document provides an overview of the public policy development process. It discusses key concepts such as identifying issues, conducting research and consultation, developing policy options, influencing government decisions, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. It also outlines the roles of different levels and actors in government and how community groups can engage at various stages of the policy cycle to advocate for issues and influence outcomes. The goal is to enhance understanding of how policy is made so that community groups can more effectively participate in and impact the process.
Public policy is influenced by many internal and external factors. Internal factors include public opinion, the economy, technology, and interest groups, while external factors are donor agencies, neighboring countries, socio-cultural conditions, and political activities. Public opinion strongly influences policy through protests and elections. The economy can enable or constrain policy based on available resources. Technology provides new solutions but also changes business environments. Interest groups advocate for policies benefiting their members. Donor agencies provide aid with policy conditions. Neighboring country relationships and demands also shape policy. Socio-cultural norms must be considered. Political parties compete over policy control through debates and demands.

This presentation was given at the Expert Workshop on Equity, Justice and Well-being in Ecosystem Governance, held at the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) in London, March, 2015.
The Community Tool Box has been working with its Iranian partners who are providing training on policy matters for NGO leaders and advocates based in Iran with the goal of strengthening their skills in policy making and capacity building. As a trainer I prepared and delivered a 60 minute on-line (GoToWebinar) audio lecture on strategic planning for policy development or policy change. The Power Point lecture was translated into Farsi and will be broadcast to the Iranian audience at a later date.
This document summarizes research on communicating about climate change and transportation/land use policies. Key findings include:
1) Avoid problematic language and focus messaging on values like community and health.
2) Link policies to beliefs around preserving land, reducing traffic, and improving air quality.
3) Use positive semantics describing choices, options, and specific successful examples.
4) For land use, specify details of development addressing concerns over parks, schools, and design.
Sustainable development meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. It is a framework for understanding development that considers economic, social, and environmental factors. Current production and consumption patterns are unsustainable and will require two planets by 2050 if unchanged. Sustainable development policies aim to balance short-term gains with long-term impacts across sectors through a mix of market reforms, regulations, and community initiatives. No single policy can achieve sustainability alone; a critical mass of coordinated global and local actions is needed.
PAS councillor briefing - localism (january 2011) - presentation with notesPlanning Advisory Service
This document provides an overview of the Localism Bill and its implications for planning and local governance in the UK. Key points include:
1. The Bill aims to decentralize power and give local communities more control over planning and development through tools like Neighbourhood Development Plans. However, many details still need to be worked out.
2. Neighbourhood plans will allow communities to shape development but must still conform to strategic local plans. Councils will advise and support communities but not lead the process.
3. Local councils still own the local strategic planning agenda and must provide an evidence-based framework. Neighbourhood plans should focus on local issues and not compete with strategic plans.
CBH develops mega projects to make public needs more accessible, affordable, and available. It uses novel financial structures that involve cooperative and collaborative participation through various means. CBH's goal is to create sustainable development for communities in need. It operates businesses globally and focuses on principal needs of people by developing projects that make vital products more available, accessible, and affordable. CBH has identified eight sectors where it can add value through bringing novel business approaches and other means.
This gives an outline of how I think sustainable development should work - and the type of questions it generates for each of the main areas of policy.
Despite overwhelming evidence that the social, economic, and environmental benefits of ambitious climate action outweigh the costs, only a handful of countries have policy commitments in line with the temperature goals of the Paris Agreement. Given that none of these countries classify as high income, it is apparent that capacity, access to technology, and policy expertise alone are not sufficient to ensure political ambition.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
