Part 3: Expert-Youth Interaction Session
The youth webinar aims to uncover the interactions of climate change, Biodiversity, Disaster risk reduction (DRR), and Sustainable energy in light of the Covid-19 crisis. In our third installment of this webinar, we've invited senior subject expert guest speakers who will discuss addressing the synergies/trade-offs and connection between the above-mentioned topics and transformation to a new normal post-global pandemic.
This publication explains how bioengineering can be successfully applied to improve different forms of infrastructure while providing various socioeconomic and ecosystem benefits.
It introduces the concept of bioengineering, discusses its engineering functions and other benefits, and gives examples of bioengineering techniques that are appropriate in the Southeast Asia context. The publication also provides practical guidance for planning, designing, and implementing bioengineering initiatives.
This training, offered in partnership with the UN Development Programme (UNDP), teaches participants about global biodiversity-based uses of remote sensing. The UN Biodiversity Lab is an online platform that allows policymakers and other stakeholders to access global data layers, upload national datasets, and analyze these datasets in combination to provide key information on the CBD’s Aichi Biodiversity Targets and on the nature-based Sustainable Development Goals.
