| Summary, etc | Bhutan is one of the richest, most biodiverse (>11,000 species) countries in the world, with an<br/>unparalleled array of flora and fauna from the sub-tropical zone with tropical or sub-tropical<br/>vegetation to temperate zone conifer and broadleaf forests, to the alpine zones. The climate<br/>in the Himalayan region is changing more rapidly than the world average, presenting many<br/>challenges to conserving and sustaining this biological richness. .<br/>To best prepare Bhutan for current and future challenges, the Royal University of Bhutan<br/>(RUB) is committed to playing a central role in fundamental research on climate science,<br/>impacts, adaptation and mitigation through the Bhutan Himalayan Climate Studies (BHCS)<br/>project, dedicated to building long-term capacity of climate-related expertise. RUB aims to<br/>establish as an academic hub for climate change studies, especially in the context of the Hindu<br/>Kush Himalaya region, by bridging the gap between climate adaptation research, policy and<br/>operations through the BHCS project that will also coincide with Bhutan graduating from its<br/>Least Developed Country status in 2023.<br/>RUB will present a series of science dialogues, with the first webinar focused on “Bhutan as<br/>a biodiversity wonder in the Himalayas”. The Honorable Minister of Agriculture and Forests,<br/>Royal Government of Bhutan, His Excellency the Resident Coordinator for the UN in Bhutan,<br/>and the Vice Chancellor of RUB will each address the session. The Session Speakers from<br/>Macquarie University, Australia; ICIMOD, Nepal; civil society organization in Bhutan, and<br/>University academics from RUB will share their perspectives on climate change and<br/>biodiversity from international, regional and local levels on the importance of conserving and<br/>sustaining the biodiversity of the healthy ecosystems.<br/>Interested participants can register through the link below till 19th November 2020 and will be<br/>closed by 4.00 PM (BST). Webinar links will be shared with all registered participants.<br/> |
