Inclusive and Equitable Climate Resilience: Voices from the Mekong Region

To address urgent and emerging complex issues and challenges of the climate crisis, inclusive and equal voices are critical in knowledge co-production, agenda setting, and policy engagement. New forms of knowledge production are necessary to respond to the complexity of social, environmental, and economic concerns for climate change and sustainable development. Knowledge that is context-driven and problem-focused requires the engagement of diverse social groups and multiple disciplines.

The event will advocate for more inclusive and equitable climate adaptation and resilience planning and actions that are grounded on evidence-based knowledge and participatory approaches.

The forum will bring together civil society, academics, practitioners, and decision-makers to focus on climate crisis and vulnerability of the poor and marginalised community groups in the Mekong region. Based on case studies from Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam, the forum aims to discuss justice- and rights-based approaches and solutions to contribute to better climate policy at regional, national, and local levels.

Expected outputs

  • Strengthened regional networks of multi-stakeholders to engage in bottom-up approaches to support inclusive and equitable climate actions, adaptation, and resilience-building activities
  • New knowledge generated to contribute to influencing policy and planning for climate actions and responses to reduce risks, impacts, and vulnerabilities of local communities

This event is by-invitation only.
