The 14th session of the United Nations Committee of Experts on Global Geospatial Information Management (UN-GGIM) last week focused on collaborative and action-oriented approaches to strengthen geospatial capacity and leadership. Challenges posed by varying national and regional contexts were raised and the need for cross-sectoral partnerships was emphasized. Some of our key take aways include: 🔹 Research and Education: There was a call for increased collaboration between the networks and countries to bolster geospatial capabilities and support the implementation of the Integrated Geospatial Information Framework (IGIF). 🔹 Geospatial Capacity for Sustainable Development: The need for enhanced geospatial information and products to support the SDGs was underscored, with many countries requiring additional support until 2030, and for the integration of geospatial information and technologies in the post-2030 agenda. 🔹 Disaster and Climate Resilience: The session emphasized the importance of integrating geospatial information and Earth intelligence for climate resilience and disaster risk management. 🔹 DEI: The importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion, particularly gender balance, was emphasized and welcomed throughout discussions about the composition of the secretariat, networks, centers, and other representatives. The session also provided an exciting opportunity for our team to meet with several members of the SDGs Today Coalition of Experts (Dr. Mohammed Al-Sayel, Lóránt Czárán, and Aaron Addison) focusing on joint efforts and addressing the session's outcomes to advance these critical areas.
