The #SDGs, #FRDP & @PUF2019 all emphasise the need for increased collaboration but what is the art to #collaborativegovernance for resilient development across the #Pacific region? I explore this question in this blog & my PhD @GriffithBiz @citiesres @GAIGriffith @adamkahane

[Griffith Asia Inst @GAIGriffith]

Given the enormity of the #Pacific region’s #climatechange and #development challenges, Rebecca McNaught highlights the clear benefits of collaborative governance and building upon the rich collaborative problem-solving experiences to date. #PacificOutlook https://t.co/af6GVwpGkS

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

Submissions close Monday! Online and in person options. Lots of great sessions re: inclusive climate governance, adaptation decision making, climate resilient development pathways etc.

[A/Prof Johanna Nalau @AProfJNalau]

ok #climateadaptation crew: the coolest #adaptationscience conference of the year is closing submissions next Monday 30th January. Please do consider putting in abstracts and let's innovate in how adaptation can leapfrog and bounce forward 🥳! @Adapt_Alliance @WaspClimate

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

@QLD_ScienceWeek Definitely questions that we're all asking and working on at the moment post-floods! Such a need for the intersection of #science, policy, practice and local knowledge to #adapt.

"Australia is still in fossil fuel mode, not in crisis mode"...and "you can't negotiate with the science"... Mary Robinson tells it like it is @ #COP26.

[Samantha Washington @skynewsSam]

An emotional Mary Robinson, Chair of @TheElders and former President of Ireland slams leaders for not being in crisis mode and blames Saudi Arabia for blocking @skynews #COP26 Today will be very important.

@mkvaalst Keep up the amazing work Maarten!

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

We are all the beneficiaries of the #Pacific delegation's bravery and determination to hold the world to account...

@PHBarnes36 If it is an ongoing arrangement: create an informed goal and vision as a team drawing upon a diverse set of capabilities and ensure time allocated to the task is part of their JD

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

@PHBarnes36 Listen deeply to a diversity of perspectives from the community, city, state and federal levels to better understand what options are going to work in these contexts

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

Thank you @PBA_Brokers for sharing my 3 minute thesis win! It is important to deliberately fine-tune the art of #collaboration to address #climatechange and #disasters. @citiesres @DrJNalau @GriffithBiz

[Partnership Brokers @PBA_Brokers]

Congratulations @beckmcn. 3 years of research condensed into a 3 minute video (a must-watch for anyone managing partnerships and collaborations.

@DrEdMorgan presenting the @citiesres Adaptation Science team's initial research findings on #transformation at the QLD #Disaster Research Forum today - great work Ed! @DrJNalau @DrADedekorkut

"We (government, private sector and NGOs) need to work together and come up with solutions to feed and protect the health of our people." You're in our thoughts Fiji!

We can't travel overseas, but our coal can. Time to think about what's truly in Australia's national interest as the world transitions away from coal. #JustTransition

@fionatarpey @ACFID @HumAdGrp @AusAmbEnviro @AusHumanitarian Wonderful to see both the impacts and causes of climate change being addressed by humanitarian organisations!

[Fiona Tarpey @fionatarpey]

A new Climate + Environment Charter for the humanitarian sector.

7 strong commitments to address impacts of #climatechange in #humanitarian action. A charter for the entire sector - please sign up.

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

Stand out #resilience message @renewfestbyron: language matters. Bringing communities together under the topic of #disaster can be difficult. Using a common language of ‘thriving’ and ‘connecting’ and having fun attracts more interest and engages more orgs in a common vision.

[Rebecca McNaught @beckmcn]

Such an incredible global network of volunteers with a common language of humanitarianism. Happy Red Cross Red Crescent Day!!

[ICRC @ICRC]

It's Red Cross and Red Crescent Day!

Over 190 countries.
Nearly 14 million volunteers.
Millions of staff worldwide.

Today, we pay tribute to the work of all those who risk their lives to help others in need.

Thank you ❤️

Great summary of Dame Meg Taylor's legacies in the #Pacific Islands Forum by Greg Fry. Demonstrating inclusive governance practices being one of them. https://t.co/LaxUN3hyGV

Nice curves.

2. The insistence that “today’s zero-carbon technologies are more expensive than their fossil-fuel counterparts”.
That’s false. See this report from Lazard (and associated graphic): https://t.co/YtR1O5aso1

@AlexeiPT @cathyoke @UniMelb @IISD_SDGs @unaavic Just saw this the other day - right up my PhD alley! Will join for sure
