This document discusses mainstreaming biodiversity at the sector level. It notes that over 1 billion people rely on seafood and 1.6 billion on forests for livelihoods. Protected areas currently cover 15% of land and 3% of oceans. Mainstreaming seeks to prevent negative impacts on biodiversity from production sectors and promote beneficial activities. This can be done in fisheries through reduced bycatch gear, in agriculture through limiting fertilizers and pesticides, and in forestry through management plans. Effective mainstreaming requires understanding links between sectors and biodiversity, clear objectives, stakeholder engagement, communication, and strong institutions. Barriers include lack of economic valuation and data, as well as insufficient evidence of success. Tools include ecosystem assessments

Coordinating NDCs and NAPs - Addressing agricultural resilience in long term ...UNDP Climate
The document discusses integrating agriculture into national climate change plans like Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) to address objectives like food security, livelihoods, ecosystems, and climate resilience while also contributing to mitigation goals. It provides an example from Uruguay where climate-smart livestock practices can increase productivity and incomes for farmers while reducing emissions and capturing carbon in soils. Uruguay's approach coordinates strategies between institutions and develops sectoral NAPs and monitoring of agriculture's mitigation commitments.
Uganda - Addressing agricultural resilience in long term climate planning ins...UNDP Climate
The landscape of climate planning instruments available to countries under the UNFCCC process includes National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and Long Term Strategies (LTS). These instruments have emerged at different milestones such as the Cancun Adaptation Framework and the Paris Agreement and have specific characteristics and objectives which can contribute to and reinforce each other if leveraged effectively. Despite their very distinctive nature, these national instruments can be harnessed to scale up climate change adaptation by fostering linkages depending upon country context.
Addressing climate resilience in sectors and across sectors is a vital part of climate planning. Adaptation in agriculture is a crucial component of building resilient economies and societies and is national priority for a significant number of countries. It is well established that agricultural sectors are amongst the most climate sensitive. Over 90 percent of developing countries’ NDCs refer to agriculture as a major priority.
The juxtaposition of the range of climate planning instruments on one hand, and the sensitivity of agriculture on the other requires that all instruments be linked, sequenced and aligned appropriately by countries to best fit their national circumstances.
The webinar will draw upon country-level experiences from NAP-Ag partner countries to highlight entry points for alignment and strategies to trigger this conversation.
Webinar highlights
Unpacking the characteristics of NAPs, NDCs and LTS.
Exploring steps being taken by ministries of agriculture, ministries of environment, water and finance to leverage these instruments to scale up climate adaptation in agriculture.
Identifying what linkages are already being fostered between NAPs, NDCs and LTS and the key considerations in advancing climate change adaptation in agriculture.

Climate Change Adaptation in the Arab StatesUNDP Climate
The purpose of this publication is to detail lessons learned from UNDP’s Climate Change Adaptation work and achievements in the Arab region on achieving sustainable and lasting results. Some lessons include building local capacity at all levels to ensure a project’s long-term viability, decentralizing infrastructure management, implicating community-based organizations, and promoting resilience of vulnerable populations through livelihood diversification. Providing populations with access to adapted financial services such as Weather Index Insurances (WII) linked with microfinance services was found to support rural populations to become more resilient to climate induced damages. The immediate objective of this publication is not only to share experiences with a wider audience, but also to inform future CCA programming. The publication furthermore acts as a call to action to facilitate a long-term coordinated approach to increasing the resilience of countries most vulnerable to climate change in the region.

UNDP-FAO Integrating Agriculture in National Adaptation Plans HighlightsUNDP Climate
The joint United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Integrating Agriculture in National Adaptation Plans – Programme (NAP– Ag) is a multi–year initiative (2015–2018) funded by the International Climate Initiative of the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB). The NAP–Ag Programme is supporting countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America to identify and integrate climate change adaptation measures into relevant national planning and budgeting processes. This integration will help enhance institutional capacities and processes for operationalization of climate response strategies in the agriculture sectors as well as the facilitation of stronger partnerships between ministries of agriculture, environment, planning and finance, and other national partners. NAP–Ag provides support to countries for accessing climate finance through international mechanisms, such as the Green Climate Fund (GCF), bilateral and multilateral funding mechanisms, as well as national financing. The Programme contributes to NAPs and the achievement of targets laid out in partner countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), in particular SDG–2 “Zero Hunger” and SDG –13 “Climate Action” , by strengthening resilience and adaptive capacity to climate–related hazards and natural disasters.

Thailand UNDP-GIZ workshop on CBA - Appraisal outcomesUNDP Climate
The document discusses mainstreaming climate change objectives into sectoral programs and projects in Thailand. It provides an overview of Thailand's climate policy direction and challenges in integrating climate change fully. It then outlines a key stage approach for designing and retooling programs and projects using climate change appraisal methods like cost-benefit analysis to develop budget and financial proposals. The document also presents a case study of applying these methods to the design of a flood management infrastructure program in the Chao Phraya River Basin. It analyzes costs and benefits with and without considering climate change impacts and risks. The analysis finds greater economic benefits when factoring in climate change and helps justify related investments.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
