FROM RIDGE to REEF: Climate Stories from the Philippines
The Philippines is considered as highly at risk to climate change, given its exposure to extreme weather events and reliance on climate-sensitive resources and industries. Join us in this panel presentation as we discuss climate issues in different sectors, traversing the upland indigenous peoples and forestry and farming ecosystems, to the urban populations, and the coastal and small island communities. We will also explore how multi-sectoral collaborations, particularly between universities and inter-sectoral enterprises, can mobilize and enhance climate action.
