The document discusses REDD (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) and provides information about the Forest Carbon Partnership Facility (FCPF). The FCPF is a global partnership that aims to pilot REDD readiness and carbon finance activities. It has two mechanisms - a Readiness Fund to help countries prepare national REDD strategies, and a Carbon Fund to pay countries for verified emission reductions. The FCPF has 37 participating countries and works closely with other REDD partners like the UN-REDD Programme to help operationalize REDD.

Forest sector solutions such as conservation, restoration, and improved management of forests can help countries cost-effectively deliver up to a third of GHG emission mitigation needed by 2030 to keep temperature increases below 2°C.
This webinar highlights cost-effective solutions in forest conservation, restoration and management that can be included in national climate plans for large-scale reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and removal of carbon from the atmosphere.

Consultation on the UN-REDD Programme Guidelines on Free, Prior and Informed ...Csdi Initiative
As a UN body, the UN-REDD Programme is obliged to promote respect for, and seek the full application of, the provisions of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), including the right to give or withhold free, prior and informed consent (FPIC), particularly at the country level (UNDRIP, Art 42).
To support UN-REDD Programme countries to implement the UNDRIP, the Programme conducted three regional consultations (Vietnam, June 2010; Panama, October 2010; Tanzania, January 2011) with representatives of Indigenous Peoples’ and civil society organizations, and other stakeholders to develop specific FPIC guidelines for countries participating in the Programme. This initiative responded to the demand from participating countries for concrete guidance on how to seek FPIC and provide effective grievance within the context of the UN-REDD Programme.
With this ppt, the UN-REDD Programme presents the framework for the consolidated draft guidelines resulting from the three regional consultations.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne

All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
