Spoke today with @ChannelNewsAsia’s Yasmin Jonkers on the Middle East conflict’s impact across 36 Asia-Pacific countries.
I was asked about @UNDP focus. From households & small businesses to informal workers and farmers, food, fuel, fertilizer shortages hit the most vulnerable first. Supporting policies and programmes that reach them - that's our priority.

Mid East conflict effects transmitted to the economies and households of Asia Pacific with an intensity and speed not seen before!
Our @UNDPasiapac report, launched today, shows the hits and cushioning strategies taken by energy importing, fertilizer and food trade dependent and remittance reliant countries - with South Asia the most affected subregion. Others have managed with adaptive shielding...see how below:

Recent military escalation puts #wetlands, mangroves & the marine environment in #Iran & region at risk. Under international humanitarian law, the natural environment must be protected from severe, long-lasting harm to sustain communities, fisheries, livelihoods & #biodiversity.

Drylands now cover 40.6% of the planet, and climate change is accelerating land degradation across Asia & the Pacific.
Mongolia, Iran, China, India & Afghanistan are facing shrinking water sources, degraded soils & rising sand & dust storms.
UNDP is helping countries scale up land restoration, sustainable water management and soil protection, while supporting systems that forecast, prepare for and reduce the impact of sand and dust storms.

Listen. Partner. Deliver.
Week one @UNDP done.
Next stop: the field. To learn, to connect, to see what works.
Three quick insights ⤵️
It can take up to 1,000 years to produce just 2–3 cm of soil, but only moments for it to be lost.
When soil degrades, SDS intensify, affecting health, livelihoods & ecosystems.
Healthy soils are the foundation of life & protecting them means protecting our future.

Restoring lost or degraded wetlands presents a valuable and cost-effective opportunity for society to recover and enhance benefits.
The total value of benefits that flow from a restored wetland are often several times higher than the cost of restoration. #RestoreWetlands
