Development and climate action go together.

Powerful words this week from the Irish Climate, Transport and Energy Minister and EU COP negotiator Eamon Ryan.

We couldn't agree more and welcome that this is the thinking now at the highest levels.

[Eamon Ryan @EamonRyan]

The world is burning, and the world is unfair. Development has to be focused on protecting the most vulnerable from the impacts of climate breakdown.

WFP satellite imagery and
@SoilWatch have teamed up to identify land degradation factors and prevent loss of precious land. 🛰️🌱

https://t.co/nHnzGQ1ugL

[WFP UK @WFP_UK]

Every year, soil erosion is responsible for the loss of 24 billion tons of fertile land.

But soil is where our food begins. So to achieve #ZeroHunger, we must work together to:

🤝Foster it
🌱Nurture it
🔄Restore it

[SoilWatch @SoilWatch]

We're thrilled to have been invited by @wef & @WEFUpLink to the inaugural @VillarsIdeas Climate and Biodiversity Summit!

We're looking forward to learning from others and sharing our experience and work on scaling Nature-based Solutions to the climate and biodiversity crises.

[SoilWatch @SoilWatch]

A key point we'll raise will be on enabling greater financing by tackling head on issues of trust, scientific rigour and capacity of local actors.

Today, on #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate with UN Women and the United Nations under the theme DigitALL: Innovation and Technology for Gender Equality.

Women in Makueni already planted 1650 trees to combat soil erosion and climate change in Oct-November 2022

[SoilWatch @SoilWatch]

Did you know that 1300 women in rural Kenya are going to have access to machine learning technology through @mifukodesign Trust's WASH and Grow! project?

#internationalwomensday #mifukotrust #digitall #washandrow

[SoilWatch @SoilWatch]

We are enthusiastic about our co-operation with such an incredible Women's Community Based Organisation. We apply remote-sensing technology to provide trusted, transparent & accurate data of soil health and carbon levels in the small-holder farms of artisan women in rural Makueni

[SoilWatch @SoilWatch]

@IFAD brings smallholder farmers and livestock keepers at the forefront of #COP27 for its event with SoilWatch starting soon!

Come listen to Shaikha Abla Abuelgasim, a Native leader and pastoralist woman, speak about the challenges posed by climate change and human activity.

[SoilWatch @SoilWatch]

The #COP27 SoilWatch event with @IFAD starts this morning at 10:30 Egypt Time / 09:30 CET!
