.@OffTiss and @orfonline curated a panel discussion as part of the Hyderabad Policy Conclave: The Indian Era.
The panel explored new modalities of development partnerships for filling the ODA gap in development #finance, especially in sectors of #climate, #health, and #foodsecurity. It would also examine how North-South and South-South Cooperation can be strongly leveraged to balance geopolitical risks, strengthen multilateralism, and thus ensure long-term sustainable development.
Featuring: @gsachdevajnu, @mdevasher, @Kanica_Rakhra, @Saurabhmamtani & @swatiprabhujnu

⚠️Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region has lost 70% of its #biodiversity in the last century.
#IPBES plays a crucial role in addressing this crisis by highlighting the magnitude of this challenge, offering viable solutions, and consistently communicating the urgency of the situation.
It’s imperative to incorporate nature into investment strategies, acknowledging its pivotal role in providing solutions.
There is a critical need to advocate for innovative global finance, particularly directed towards vulnerable regions like the #HKH.

The #GigWorkers social security legislation recently passed by #Rajasthan State Assembly, is a modest, but important breakthrough. Many struggles ahead, but this law wins new rights for workers in a "gig" economy. Do watch, discuss, & spread the word

Delhi is under water. Unlike previous floods when floodwaters affected poor people living along the #Yamuna, this time posh colonies are marooned too. Water treatment plants shut. @yamunajiye ji had kept warning against destroying the river's floodplains.

Probably one of the saddest days for Indian sport when Olympic medal winners are sitting in protest at Jantar Mantar complaining of alleged sexual exploitation by wrestling bosses

So many calls about China, about what that means for India, about XBB, about 3rd waves, about new mandates, about travel bans, about vaccine boosters- thought best to get views out to summarise the current situation. Long thread, be warned 🙂 1/n

Quite criminal of @AamAadmiParty @AtishiAAP to not go into a state of emergency considering how apocalyptic the air is. Even UP has closed schools and seems more proactive in comparison #DELHIPOLLUTION

Delhi seasons should henceforth be classified by its air quality rather than temperature: breathable, unbreathable, and beyond-unbreathable.

India's politicians have failed to see the warning signs in a string of recent extreme events. This is myopic: adapting to climate change can be politically useful if done right. We need to be talking about a national adaptation strategy. @CPR_Climate @CPR_India

In #Bangladesh, #Nepal and #SriLanka respondents reported that #CivicSpaces are closing, but there are differences in how this is being experienced, say @gopathampi, @mdevasher, @sumayasaluja, Sunil Pillai and @nicolajnixon.
