So pleased to have delegates from Pacific countries attending #iaia23 and glad #SPREP was able to support their attendance.

#iaia23 is a wrap, but IAIA's dedicated Board members met afterwards for two full days to manage IAIA's business, and CEO Gary Baker led the group in strategic thinking discussions to inform our next strategic plan. Grateful for a great Board leading IAIA into the future!

[IAIA Network @IAIAnetwork]

A big thank you to our delegates, speakers, honored guests, event organizers, convention and tour staff, and to everyone else who made #IAIA23 a success. It went so well, we may just have to do it again next year...

Wes Fisher wants impact assessment professionals to start engaging with lawyers, urban planners and others outside of IA who can work with us to address climate change. Get involved with IAIA's Climate Change Action Plan. https://t.co/dl81OtJxxh #IAIAClimateChange22

"Humanity has achieved unprecedented development and prosperity over the past 50 years... But in this time nature has suffered enormous losses, with the global populations of mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles and fish declining by two-thirds on average..."

[UN Biodiversity @UNBiodiversity]

"The UN Biodiversity Conference in Kunming, or #COP15, should not be overshadowed, as #biodiversity loss is an equally grave threat to humanity."

As the first part of COP-15 begins, @guardian stresses its importance #ForNature, for climate and for people.
