Feb 2nd is #WorldWetlandsDay. Wetlands are our planet's #freshwater reservoirs and key habitats for people and wildlife. What are you doing to protect wetlands in your community? #sharedvalue Video: The Okavango, Botswana. World's largest inland delta
Extreme inequality is fracturing our societies, harming our economies, poisoning our politics & driving extremism. It's fueling crime, ill health & unhappiness. Our political leaders must run our economies fairly, ensuring fair & decent work & social protection for all.

90% of all natural disasters are water-related.🌩️🌊 🔥 Flooding, droughts and tsunamis are examples of the extreme weather events now frequent because of #climatechange. We need to #KeepWetlands Join us on 2 February #WorldWetlandsDay
Bicycle lane on Archer Rd, Kololo, Kampala. Thank you @KCCAUG & @KCCAED. This is progress! For us who dare to cycle in this city, this is momentous! We hope to see more & more, one street at a time. #GreenCities #SustainableMobility #cycling cc @mandyug
Excited to have our 2018 summer fellows from College of William & Mary & the University of Texas. Emma, Emily & Kristi will be supporting our Open Data initiatives in Uganda & specifically working on an #opendata manual for development practitioners.
In this TED Talk, @aguribfakim, a #biodiversity scientist & 6th President of Mauritius makes a fascinating case for rare plant species, most of which endemic to the Mascarene Islands of Indian ocean, & how their potential is being threatened by habitat loss & species extinction.
We were delighted to host the 6th president of Mauritius, Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, thanks to our friends at @LeoAfricaInst. President @aguribfakim is a renowned #biodiversity scientist whose work and ideals for the future of our planet we highly applaud.
It's a risky business being a cyclist in Kampala & in most African cities.But cycling is possibly the greatest, cheapest, most pleasurable & 'greenest' form of transport ever invented. It's worth the risk to be a part-time 🚴 commuter! #cycling #greenmobility #Sustainability
Nature is diverse. Nature’s variety is expressed as biodiversity. #Wetlands are part of nature’s #biodiversity. 22 May is International biodiversity day #IntlBiodiversityDay. @UN Biodiversity is celebrating 25 years of action for Biodiversity. #Wetlands are for biodiversity
This #EarthDay, remember one thing: We do not protect the Earth just so it can survive. We protect the Earth so we can all thrive. #NatureUnitesUs
It's #EarthDay2018 & at #OpenImpact we believe that trees & forests can save our planet & its people! Forests provide renewable freshwater supply to 76% of the global population & are an important carbon sink + their unrivaled economic and social benefits.
Wetlands are important freshwater reservoirs! Massive wetlands like the #Okavango are our lifeline. Remember only 2.5% of all the water on our planet is fresh water and only 1% of this tiny portion is accessible to us.
Green growth is not one of the options, it's the only option and if applied and managed correctly will drive economic prosperity for people and 'ecological prosperity' for our planet.
"Climate change is one of the greatest dangers we face, and one we can prevent" ~ Stephen Hawking (1942-2018). He was keen to paying the fares of climate deniers to Venus!Here's more about his final warnings on climate change google.com/amp/s/www.ecow…
Communities are taking action. These energy saving stoves distributed by #KiimaFoods in Kasese, western Uganda are greatly reducing biomass energy consumption at household level. #climateprogress #ClimateAction
There are no passengers on spaceship earth. We are all crew. ~ Marshall McLuhan
We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims. [The challenge is] to make the world work for 100% of humanity in the shortest possible time, with spontaneous cooperation and without ecological damage or disadvantage of anyone. –R. Buckminster Fuller
Earlier today, we had an important engagement with @SwedeninUG where we stressed the urgency of harnessing #collaborations under the @accelerate_lab MSP together with @_SLU @SLU_Global @ruforumsec @MakerereU and other partners. #cocreate #agrifood
Harnessing the power of collaboration and #cocreation is of our pedigree. Today with the @accelerate_lab partners at @MakerereU
With @mengwau of @BDCUganda and Teun Dekker of @_SLU laying strategies for @accelerate_lab #Acceleratelab2018 to be hosted by @MakerereU. Committed to enabling young people to #cocreate in #agripreneurship
