This document discusses natural capital, which refers to natural assets like soil, water, forests, and biodiversity that support the economy. It notes that while GDP and other traditional economic indicators are used, they do not account for impacts on natural capital or environmental degradation. It argues that natural capital accounting is needed to properly value nature and inform decision-making. The document also discusses the media's role in raising awareness of environmental issues and calls on news organizations to provide more constructive coverage of natural capital and sustainability topics to shape a sustainable future.

Degradation and Loss of Peri-Urban Ecosystems

The Rockefeller Foundation

Rapid degradation of peri-urban ecosystems is resulting in a loss of associated ecosystem services. Water provision, storm-and waste-water regulation, along with protection from natural disasters and erosion, are the impacted services that most acutely affect poor or vulnerable populations. The poor may be disproportionately impacted by loss of ecosystem services due to lack of political power around land use decision making and limited alternatives for livelihoods, housing, or basic services. Vulnerability extends to urban populations that depend on the ecosystem services provided by or flowing through peri-urban areas. Often, the loss of ecosystems is irreversible and the replacement of associated services is costly, if even possible.

Rebound: Building a More Resilient World

The Rockefeller Foundation

Threats and stresses to our 21st century world come in all shapes and sizes, just as they have since the beginning of human existence. But what distinguishes today’s threats from those of the past is the escalating rate at which they are occurring, without mind for geography or man-made borders. Issues once identified and analyzed individually – our environment, the economy, and social challenges – are now inextricably interlinked. Despite all we know about resilience and the large body of research and literature that has been written on the subject – too few societies, organizations, and systems get resilience right. In our new publication, titled Rebound: Building a More Resilient World, we asked leaders from various disciplines to share their lessons of what resilience means and what it requires of us. Through the lens of their own experiences, we can begin to explore some of the ways we can help prepare for, withstand and emerge stronger from the acute shocks and chronic stresses of the 21st century.

This document discusses the need to redefine education in the context of climate change. It covers topics such as the causes and impacts of climate change, the ethical implications, and actions individuals and communities can take. The key points are: 1) Unsustainable development has led to climate change through environmental degradation and greenhouse gas emissions. A paradigm shift is needed to understand sustainable development through an ecosystem lens. 2) Education must incorporate science, the political economy of decision making, ethics around climate justice, and opportunities for relevant individual and community action on mitigation and adaptation. 3) Education should follow the four pillars of learning - learning to know, do, be, and live sustainably - to foster critical thinking and

Risk coping in swidden livelihoods and the potential of REDD+ in Laos

CIFOR-ICRAF

The document summarizes research on risk coping strategies used by smallholder farmers practicing swidden agriculture in Laos and how these farmers may respond to incentives from REDD+ programs. Key findings include: 1) Farmers currently face risks from crop losses, livestock losses, and economic impacts and cope through forest product harvesting, savings, labor, and community support. 2) In games simulating REDD+ incentives, group payments led to greater reductions in forest clearing than individual payments or insurance. 3) Effects of incentives did not always last after the programs ended, suggesting need for longer-term support for livelihoods.

A Roadmap to Reduce U.S. Food Waste by 20 Percent

The Rockefeller Foundation

By 2050, it is estimated that the Earth’s population will top 9 billion. This growing population will undeniably stress our food systems, natural resources, and ecosystems. But consider this: Currently, we waste up to 40 percent of our food globally. In the United States, this equals roughly 400 pounds annually for every American. Meanwhile, one in seven Americans are food insecure. These stunning facts—partnered with seeing waste occur firsthand through our work with our operating farm and the restaurants and grocery stores it services—really brought this issue home for us. This prompted us as philanthropists and a family concerned about healthy communities and ecological sustainability to ask our team to explore the topic of wasted food. Through our family foundation, we have been focused on solving large-scale environmental issues with market-based solutions since 2001. We started by looking at how funding solutions to climate change, both through grants and impact investments, can play an important role in transitioning our society to a low-carbon economy.

Siang Yang

The document discusses the role of Integrated Conservation-Development Projects (ICDPs) in sustainable environmental management. It summarizes that past environmental measures failed because they did not link wildlife protection to local welfare. ICDPs aimed to integrate environmental protection and development, but outcomes have been largely ineffective. Case studies from Ghana and China are presented to illustrate weaknesses in the ICDP approach, such as unrealistic goals, lack of local participation and needs assessment, and failure to improve livelihoods or provide compensation for losses. The conclusion is that ICDPs have presented an illusion of "win-win" outcomes by not adequately addressing the critical linkage between conservation and rural development in local contexts.

Paying the price of naturealisterfinal

ruralfringe

The document summarizes key lessons from the National Ecosystem Assessment report. It makes four main points: 1) The NEA report provides important messages about the value of nature, but needs to communicate using clear and accessible language for the public and policymakers to understand. 2) Nature is too important to privatize, and coordinated action is needed to address ongoing habitat and species decline through our "National Environment Service". 3) Long-term support for nature is needed to maintain its values of life, health and well-being, but budget cuts threaten this. 4) The environment needs to be prioritized within improved governance championed by the government. The NEA and planning framework can help if

Natural Capital, Counting it in!

Philippine Press Institute

The document discusses natural capital accounting, which aims to quantify the value of natural resources and ecosystem services. It outlines the challenges of economic growth degrading the environment and notes that current systems do not reflect nature's invisibility and interdependence with human well-being. Natural capital accounting seeks to integrate environmental information into policies by valuing ecosystem services and changing incentives to reward stewardship of natural assets over the long run. The document provides definitions of natural capital and ecosystem services and describes different types of services like provisioning, regulating, cultural and supporting. It also discusses tools like ecosystem and inclusive wealth accounting that can reflect natural values in decision making.

What is Sustainable Development?

Info EDCW

Sustainable development aims to meet present needs without compromising future generations' ability to meet their own needs. It requires balancing environmental, social, and economic concerns. Sustainable development is important because over a billion people live in poverty or lack clean water, while ecological systems are under stress due to pollution, resource depletion, and species extinction. If everyone consumed resources like people in the UK, we would need three planets to sustain current lifestyles. Sustainable development seeks to address these social and environmental issues through responsible use of natural resources and transitioning to a low-carbon economy.

Philippine Press Institute

The document summarizes and critiques the Puno ConCom constitution proposal. It argues that the proposal is objectionable due to the current populist context in the Philippines and some concerning content changes. Specifically, it argues that the proposal would further concentrate power in the presidency and weaken checks on executive authority. Additionally, it questions whether federalism is actually the best means to address poverty and inequality in the country based on empirical studies. The document raises doubts about the transition process and risks of political dynasties gaining more regional control under the proposed federal system.

It outlines how the 1987 Constitution and Indigenous Peoples' Rights Act recognize the rights of indigenous groups to self-determination and ancestral lands. However, some court cases have challenged these rights and concerns remain regarding the draft federal constitution. The document argues that autonomy and upholding indigenous rights will strengthen inclusion and that these rights should be firmly established in the constitution.

A Personal View on the Draft Charter on Philippine Federalism

Philippine Press Institute

This document discusses past attempts at charter change in the Philippines and reasons they failed. It notes that almost every administration since martial law has proposed charter change. Past efforts failed because they were seen as ways for presidents to extend their terms rather than due to a lack of merit in the proposed amendments. Specific failed attempts discussed include those under President Erap, Gloria Arroyo, and a PDP-Laban proposal. Skepticism of charter change comes from the misuse of constitutional amendments under Marcos.

1) The document discusses principles of fiscal federalism including the need for subnational governments to have substantial revenue raising powers and transfers to remedy fiscal gaps. 2) Guidelines are provided for assigning taxes and transfers between different levels of government. Taxes should relate to responsibilities and mobility, transfers should consider population, income, and performance. 3) Political dynasties are discussed as a challenge for federalism, with roots in inequality, lack of checks and balances, and culture. Ways to address this include fiscal decentralization with discipline, multi-member districts, and empowering voters and civil society.

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdf

Ben Linders

Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained. But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture? In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change. Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life

artemacademy2

Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures. Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
