No struggle can ever succeed without women participating side by side with men. There are two powers in the world; one is the sword and the other is the pen. There is a great competition and rivalry between the two. There is a third power stronger than both, that of the women.” Pakistan is signatory 107  to the COP 28 Declaration on Climate Action to develop Food Systems, & Farming Systems via Sustainable Agriculture. and also Signatory 52 for HIGH AMBITION MULTI LEVEL PARTNERSHIPS FOR CLIMATE ACTION.

India has achieved progress on 85 indicators of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), according to the UNESCAP. However, the Asia-Pacific region is projected to take an additional 32 years to achieve the SDG goals. Data availability remains a challenge for some indicators in India.

India ranked 112th out of 166 countries in 2023 for its progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), based on the 'State of India’s Environment 2024 report' by the Centre for Science and Environment. The ranking highlights both progress and challenges for India in achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals. While it's positive that India improved its position from the previous year, it's concerning that it still trails behind several South Asian countries. #sdgs2030 #nitiaayog

This week, our Olga Speckhardt represented us in the Bangladesh Startup Summit 2023, organized by Startup Bangladesh Limited. Our main messages shared at the summit were: 1️⃣ 2023 is registering the highest temperatures ever in history and recently there has been and increase of climate events in Bangladesh. This is a reminder that we have to step up in the fight of climate shocks through inclusive #resilience innovations. Innovations that are guided by smallholder farmers, adapted to local circumstances, and sustainable for the economy and environment will be necessary to ensure #FoodSecurity in the future. Example - 'Leverage of climate data for early warning and informed decisions': a case of bundling financial solutions with inputs with the value add of climate advisory information in Bangladesh 🇧🇩 2️⃣ The key to economic security to #FoodSecurity in Bangladesh is #empoweringwomen. Women are at the center stage of providing food to their families. They require more and more capacity building around food and nutrition. 3️⃣ #Climatechange is the biggest threat and as stakeholders we got a responsibility at hand to #PartnerwithPurpose. Let us look into re-engineering our PPP approaches and center more innovations towards sustainable food production, climate resilience, access to better rewarding markets and building robust data sharing ecosystem to boost innovations and resilience.

112th out of 166 countries, India still has long way to go in its Sustainability journey. Despite doing well to check poverty and hunger. Should India prioritize hunger over clean water ? climate action over justice ? life under water over equality ? Share your views, what are your priority 5 UN SDG for India ? Only way to score higher is to make every category positively influence few other simultaneously. An integrated Sustainable development strategy is the way forward for all countries. Every corporation and citizen are responsible for nation's SDG performance. Which SDG do you influence positively ? #sustainabilityjourney #unsdg https://lnkd.in/d8npFSmN

#BeforeAndAfterWithSSETS Two key lessons that I have been impacted the most by participating in the SSETS Programme, so far, have been time management in problem identification and problem solving. My research mostly aligns with these top 4 UN SDGs: United Nation Sustainable Development Goal 1 (No Poverty) My expertise and research results aim at reducing poverty through emancipation of youths and job creations. These self-employed youths become dependent on their creative innovations and go the long way of employing others. Consequently, poverty is reduced. United Nation Sustainable Development Goal 2 (Zero Hunger) These emancipated youths become scientific experts and create agro-based businesses. These businesses provide vital sources of protein to millions of citizens through supply of their basic and dietary protein needs/demands. Consequently, hunger is reduced and eliminated. United Nation Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good Health and Well-being) With the constant supply of the recommended dietary protein demands and needs of every individual, good health is improved. This is translated into psychosocial healthy and well-being of every individual. United Nation Sustainable Development Goal 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) It is important I include that UN SDGs 7 is also achieved. This is because in the course of of my research and accumulated experience, I have transformed agro-generated wastes from poultry and aquaculture into environmentally-friendly end-products. At a small scale level, I have been able to generate bio-gas from agro wastes for lighting my small environment. These wastes are affordable clean energy that align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal number 7. United Nation Sustainable Development Goal 13 (Climate Action) Climate Action is primarily a consequence of fossil fuel utilization. My research focuses on reducing fossil fuel generation and improving climate. This action also takes care of human and animal health hence aligning with the UN SDG 3. This research is with collaborative efforts from Okwuchukwu Ani and Ugwu Okechukwu Paul-chima Ph.D Bill Gates, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, Lancaster University, British Council, National Universities Commission (NUC), Enugu State University of Science and Technology #SSETS #MySDGfocusWithSSETS. #MyKeyLessonsOnSSETS

I am From Nepal. My social Impact Plan for the convention is on empowering farmers, creating a market of raw materials for wool- based fabrics (Production of Kashmiri fiber), and mitigating the environmental impact of the fashion industry amid the prevalent use of plastic and polyester. The strategy, outlined through four key goals, serves as a roadmap to achieving this vision: Goal 1: - Develop a network of farmers and engage in Animal Husbandry, especially focusing on the Himalayan Goat, (CHANGRA) in Nepalese Language. Goal 2: -Establish Wool collection points and processing plants in many parts of the country. Goal 3: - To Promote awareness, not just within the industry but across communities. Goal 4: - Uplift farmers' livelihoods by providing financial support (Seed Funds), training, and fostering strategic collaborations. My commitment doesn’t end with setting these goals; I understand the importance of continuous monitoring and evaluation ensuring measurable and impactful activities. Communication is at the heart of my strategy—regular updates on social media, engagement with agencies, and detailed annual reports are the channels through which our story unfolds. This journey aligns seamlessly with the Sustainable Development Goals—eradicating poverty, combating climate change, and fostering partnerships. I also want to express my belief in the power of collaboration and youth-driven initiatives. Therefore, through my participation in the Global Youth Convention, I see an opportunity to plan a movement towards a sustainable, prosperous contribution to the fabric industry. During the conference, I aim to leverage valuable networks, explore the potential of Pashmina Fiber, and other sustainable wool- based fibers in the international market. I am determined to bring back valuable feedback to enrich my future action plans. #Social_Impact_Plan #hisa #GYC_2024 Global_Youth_convention

Last week, Ambassador Mr. Riaz Hamidullah had a meeting with United Nations University-MERIT Director Dr. Bartel Van de Walle to discuss potential collaborations that could have a profound impact in #Bangladesh and beyond. Their shared interests lie in fostering impactful #innovations in key areas, ultimately for mutual gain. Here’s a glimpse of the exciting possibilities they explored: Education, #manufacturing, water management, #agriculture, #wastemanagement, and #circulareconomy. The cooperation towards the achievement of circular economy is where all the interests collide and shared goal all over the world. Bangladesh especially is characterized by Intersection of #ecology & #economy, including water management and agriculture. Through this meeting, the significance of Green & Societal transformation towards circular economy and its impact on Bangladeshi and international society was rediscovered. Ambassador also put a crucial global challenge #ManufacturingNetZero on the agenda, raising questions how to achieve Manufacturing NetZero through effective energy use and what extent we can do. Those #aspirations sometimes sound like a pipe dream and people are likely to be stuck in sealed fate. However, the world needs to work on #technology for innovation and share experience to avoid apocalyptic #climatechange.
