The Regional Conference serves as an avenue for the incubation of potential transformative strategies for the successive 2025 - 2029 Action Plan at the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention Fifth Review Conference. On the grounds of some states, threatening humanitarian crisis have evolved that demands the intensification of the thematic areas of humanitarian mine action peculiar to State challenges. Today, the climax of the three(3) days regional agenda setting for risk reduction interventions will inform programmes that have success impacts following the the various accounts and lesson learnt of affected States. We need not a universal module of operations for victim support but context-incline approaches (risk reducing education materials that meet the cognitive capacities of children, women and persons with disabilities) sensitive to all. Cheers to Humanitarian aid! Cheers to collaborative efforts centered on Humanitarian imperatives! Cheers to a Mine free Africa! Cheers to a Mine free World! #APMBC #humanitarianaid #disarmament #yps

Ever worry that donors won’t fund your feather-ruffling? Dive into one of the most powerful Trumanitarian convos from March 2024 exploring the complexities of independence. In a sector often entangled with highly politicised shenanigans and blurred ethical boundaries, who can genuinely claim independence – and what does it truly mean? Host Lars Peter Nissen brings together Meg Sattler (Executive Director of Ground Truth Solutions), Ed Schenkenberg van Mierop (Executive Director of HERE-Geneva), and Adelina Kamal (former Executive Director of The ASEAN Coordinating Centre for Humanitarian Assistance on disaster management (AHA Centre). Join us as they struggle to find the right balance between their commitment to change and the day-to-day realities of humanitarian work. When does collaboration become complicity, and how do you avoid alienating donors and barking yourself out of the conversation altogether? This episode is more than just a call to listen – it’s a call to ACTION, to expose the nonsense, challenge the norms, and dare to imagine a humanitarian practice where independence isn’t merely a strategic ideal but a cornerstone for accountable practice.

As of today, #WorldRefugeeDay, over 120 million people have been forcibly displaced worldwide. That number has more than doubled in the last decade. Numbers that big can feel overwhelming—what can be done about such an incredibly massive problem? That's why today (and every day) it's important to remember that humans can't be reduced to numbers. In an open letter from International Rescue Committee President & CEO David Miliband and co-signed by fellow CEOs including Cotopaxi CEO Damien Huang, we're calling on the private sector to help catalyze lasting change and transform the lives of people affected by conflict and disaster as they rebuild their futures.

"Expanding Horizons in Mine Action: Collaborating for Sustainable Livelihoods" Last week, I had the privilege of attending a Strategic Partnerships Workshop hosted by The HALO Trust & Irish Aid. The event brought together Mine Action players, INGO's, government, affected communities and key donors to emphasize the crucial need for collaboration in planning for Resilience/Livelihoods projects on demined land. Here were my key takeaways: •Mine Action and development NGOs must collaborate to ensure sustainable utilization of demined land. •Collaboration is key in maximizing impact, reducing duplication of efforts, and leveraging resources. •Donor engagement and support are vital for scaling up successful initiatives. I'm eager to explore potential partnerships and contribute to the vital work of creating safer and more prosperous communities. #MineAction #SustainableLivelihoods #StrategicPartnerships #Collaboration #Demining #DonorEngagement" CAFOD, Welthungerhilfe (WHH), UNDP Zimbabwe, The HALO Trust, APOPO , MAG (Mines Advisory Group), Caritas Zimbabwe Diocese of Chinhoyi, Irish Aid, Embassy of Japan in Zimbabwe

Recordings of the sessions from this year's Alaska Sustainable Energy Conference are now online: https://lnkd.in/g3F4duXP - See INLers Erin Searcy and Christine King in "Demystifying Nuclear", and the AI panel featuring Erin Searcy and Anchorage-based entrepreneur Jay Byam ("AI, Grid Integration, and the Energy Transition"). - If you're working in Alaska, you know there is a growing understanding of Alaska as a part of the Arctic. We have a lot in common with our colleagues in Arctic nations, and increasingly look to them for solutions on our unique infrastructure and security needs. You'll see that I post a lot about that here, and several of the conference session illustrate the Arctic connection. Specifically, I will point out the first session "Critical conversations: What happens in the Arctic doesn't stay in the Arctic." Again, much thanks for the Idaho National Laboratory crew who made the trip from Idaho, including those mentioned above and Glen Murrell, Jennifer Jackson, Misty B., Thomas Mosier, and John Jackson.

In October 2023, I had the opportunity to represent NAXA at The GSMA Foundation's Innovation Fund Bootcamp and #MWCKigali at Kigali, Rwanda. NAXA, has won the #GSMAInnovationFund Award, together with its partners (DCA Nepal, Institute of Himalayan Risk Reduction and Viamo) to scale an Anticipatory Action (AA) platform, i.e., Digital and Spatial Technologies for Anticipatory Action #DASTAA to flood prone wards of the lower Mahakali basin with the aim of enhancing #anticipatoryactions and reducing the impacts of disaster at the household level. This approach includes profiling the disaster risks of each household, prior to flooding, monitoring thresholds, enabling local government and humanitarian agencies to take evidence-based decisions for targeted disaster preparedness and recovery programmes. #innovation #disasterpreparedness #disasterrecovery #disasterriskreduction #disastermanagement #anticipatoryactions #naxa
