This document discusses accelerating climate initiatives through nature-based solutions. It highlights how nature-based solutions can provide environmental and social benefits while enhancing sustainability. Examples are given such as mangrove belt recovery for coastal protection and coral rehabilitation for wave mitigation. The overall goal is to build the business case for investing in nature-based approaches to address climate change challenges like mitigation, adaptation, resilience, and risk reduction.

Guiding Principles for Delivering Coastal Wetland Carbon ProjectsCIFOR-ICRAF
This presentation was given at a COP20 side-event titled "Guiding Principles for Delivering Coastal Wetland Carbon Projects” in Lima, Peru. It was presented by moderator Daniel Murdiyarso and rapporteur Kristell Hergoualc'h.
Coastal wetland ecosystems play a significant role in sequestering and storing carbon in biomass and soils. These ecosystems, however, are facing tremendous pressure and large portion of them are already degraded due to unsustainable cuttings and aquaculture development. This panel discussed options for policy and practice for improving sustainability and realizing the full mitigation and adaptation potential of coastal wetland ecosystems.

Environmental change is the sad reality of today and the world doesn’t seem to be awakened enough to do something about it. The good news is that some remarkable organizations like Mobius Foundation are actually creating a difference by constantly working towards dealing with the consequences of climate change.

Synergies between mitigation and adaptation..ppt glf nov 16Liz Kahurani
There is growing recognition of the potential for jointly achieving climate change mitigation and adaptation through land management. Landscape approaches to enhancing multi-functionality have been identified as a promising pathway to synergies between mitigation and adaptation besides helping achieve other livelihood needs through ecosystem services and functions provision. This presentation explores what is known and gaps in understanding of synergies and trade-offs. It also explores the necessary enabling conditions that help promote synergies in order to realize the benefits of the approach. We build on an ex-post analysis of the Ngitili systems in Tanzania and selected examples from agroforestry practices to inform the discussion.

This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.
Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.
