NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) has opened a new open, online webinar series: Introduction to Lightning Observations and Applications. This three-part, introductory training focuses on global and regional lightning data products that can be applied to disaster risk preparedness.

As the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events are likely to increase due to climate change impacts, lightning activity will likely increase as well, causing more power outages, increased risks of wildfire ignition, and increased numbers of injuries and fatalities. Therefore, information about lightning activity is critical for better preparedness against these disasters.

NASA’s Applied Remote Sensing Training Program (ARSET) has opened a new open, online webinar series: Large Scale Applications of Machine Learning using Remote Sensing for Building Agriculture Solutions. Remote sensing data is becoming crucial to solve some of the most important environmental problems, especially pertaining to agricultural applications and food security. Participants will become familiar with data format and quality considerations, tools, and techniques to process remote sensing imagery at large scale from publicly available satellite sources, using cloud tools such as AWS S3, Databricks, and Parquet. Additionally, participants will learn how to analyze and train machine learning models for classification using this large source of data to solve environmental problems with a focus on agriculture.

Building on the successful collaboration in last year’s Annual Conference, the IoS Fair Transitions Platform (UU) and LANDac are pleased to launch this Call for a second joint Conference, which will have a somewhat different set-up from what you are used to and end with a Summit. We welcome your suggestions for panel sessions and round tables for the first two days. Building on your input, we will conclude on the last day with an experiment of democracy – a more-than human Summit. There will be limited hybrid options for participation in the Conference and the Summit.

Este seminario web explorará cómo podría ser el acceso a la reparación para las comunidades en el sistema del mercado mundial del carbono, centrándose en cuestiones de tenencia de la tierra y los recursos. Escuchando a las comunidades afectadas por los mercados de carbono y a expertos en el diseño de mecanismos de reclamación, el seminario web destacará las características clave necesarias para que los mecanismos de reclamación sean accesibles, fiables y creíbles. El debate ofrecerá una aportación fundamental al mecanismo de reclamación propuesto para los mercados establecidos en virtud del artículo 6.4 del Acuerdo de París de la CMNUCC.

Las dos últimas cumbres mundiales de las Naciones Unidas sobre el clima han sido grandes  promesas para los Pueblos Indígenas. En la COP26 de 2021, los gobiernos y las organizaciones filantrópicas privadas prometieron casi 2.000 millones de dólares para apoyar los derechos de tenencia de los pueblos indígenas y las comunidades locales. La COP27 del año pasado llevó a la creación de un nuevo fondo de "pérdidas y daños" para ayudar a las comunidades vulnerables a responder a los desastres climáticos.

Los desastres inducidos por el cambio climático y las respuestas de las comunidades para protegerse y diseñar soluciones se han convertido en una de las principales prioridades de la agenda climática. En el centro de los debates sobre mitigación y adaptación han estado las poblaciones urbanas, especialmente en los asentamientos informales. Al mismo tiempo, se tiende a pasar por alto a las personas pobres de las zonas rurales con un acceso limitado o nulo a la tierra.

APqc

Em meados dos 70, pesquisadores científicos dos institutos de pesquisa ligados ás secretarias de Estado da Agricultura, Méio Ambiente e Saúde reuniram-se no auditório do Instituto Biológico, em São Paulo, com o objetivo de fundar a sua Associação de classe. Após inúmeros encontros, em 2 de Agosto de 1977 foi criada a Associação de Pesquisadores Científicos do Estado de São Paulo (APqc), tendo como objetivos a divulgação, o fortalecimento e a defesa dos institutos públicos de pesquisa paulistas, das atividades de pesquisa e de pesquisadores científicos ativos e inativos. 

The Canadian Journal of Development Studies is a peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary, bilingual forum for critical research and reflection on the complex problems of international development theory, policy and practice. The CJDS publishes articles and review essays, and the Journal aims to keep readers informed with occasional commentaries, practical notes and reviews of recent books and other media on international development. The CJDS is global in its outlook and encourages contributions from scholars and practitioners around the world.

CNPQ

O CNPq foi criado pela Lei nº 1.310, de 15 de janeiro de 1951, com a denominação de Conselho Nacional de Pesquisas. Na ocasião, o art. 1º, §1º dessa lei atribuiu ao conselho personalidade jurídica própria e o subordinou diretamente à Presidência da República. Posteriormente, a Lei nº 6.129, de 6 de novembro de 1974 transformou o Conselho Nacional de Pesquisas no atual Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico e reformulou sua configuração jurídica, atribuindo-o personalidade jurídica de direito privado, sob a forma de fundação.

Dynamic, agile and effective, the Environmental Justice Foundation (EJF) is working to secure a world where natural habitats and environments can sustain, and be sustained by, the communities that depend upon them for their basic needs and livelihoods.
