On 6th May 2021, ONet held an online seminar with Dr. Jason Hickel and Dr. Laura Pereira on the topic of Degrowth for Biodiversity Conservation.
Some of the highlights of this event with Laura Pereira (an IPBES stakeholder) are available in the following video clips. Further questions which we did not have time to cover during the webinar are posted along with their responses in a previous blog post.
IPBES has pioneered new ways to include knowledge and expertise from the social sciences and humanities (SSH) in global environmental assessments. The SSH Network aims to facilitate the further development and implementation of this initiative.
Background
IPBES8 will take place online 14-24 June 2021.
At this important session, the Plenary will amongst other things, consider for approval:
The 6th Pan-European IPBES Stakeholder Consultation was held online on the 5th and 6th of October 2020 and gave an overall presentation of network opportunities within Europe (e.g. ONet, the ECA network, Eklipse) and held a collective discussion on the First Order Draft of the IPBES Invasive Alien Species assessment.
All of the presentations given at the event and the final report on the meeting are now available.
ONet is pleased to announce the next PESC-6 meeting that will happen online on 5 & 6 October 2020. This event is organised by the ECA network with several partners, including ONet.
This is a great opportunity for all stakeholders in Europe and Central Asia to engage with IPBES. For Russian-speaking participants, there will be English-Russian-English interpreters to translate the presentations during the plenary sessions.
