Hello Bluesky! I am looking to connect here with other people working on #climatechange #adaptation, especially on #cities, #monitoringandevaluation, and #naturebasedsolutions. In case you want to get a better idea of what my work until now has been about, look no further: t.ly/Scnyt #climatechange

🌈 New pre-print (Pride edition)! Leo Goldsmith & I analysed all 198 UNFCCC national adaptation plans (NAPs)—252 docs total—to see whether & how they include sexual & gender minorities (SGM). Only 23 mention SGM, and just 2 show what we call transformative inclusion.

Mapping Sexual and Gender Minority Inclusion in National Adaptation Plans Globally
Sexual and gender minorities (SGM) experience disproportionate climate impacts, yet no empirical analysis exists on their inclusion in adaptation planning. We ask: (1) To what extent are SGM included ...

Working on #transdisciplinarity for #adaptation? In our opinion piece in @plosclimate.org, we call for stronger evidence on the benefits of transdisciplinary approaches to climate adaptation. A great team effort led by @martaolazabal.bsky.social. But what was my part in this?
New Opinion article by @martaolazabal.bsky.social and colleagues:

"Transdisciplinarity in climate change adaptation: An agenda for evidence generation"

Adaptation is all about relationships. The response to TC Alfred shows why: how “well” we adapt depends on our social bonds. Hoarding & profiteering or courage & care: what kind of country do we want to be? More explained in our recent paper: link.springer.com/article/10.1...

1/ 🚨NEW PAPER ALERT (OPEN ACCESS)🚨
What comes to mind when you hear "climate change adaptation"? ⛈️ Many think of softened blows from hazards. But when I asked MERL experts on urban nature-based solutions during my PhD, their unexpected answers reshaped my perspective. (doi.org/10.1007/s132...)

Would anyone be interested in a #M&E / #MEL starter pack (monitoring, evaluation and learning) for researchers and practitioners? Too specific? Focusing on adaptation and related fields. Anyone signing up or recommending?

Hello adaptation researchers and practitioners!
Since I haven't seen one yet, here's a starter pack of scientists actively working in the climate adaptation and resilience space, including researchers as well as climate service providers! 🌎🧪

The Bluesky elders will remember that in the old days (2023) all Bluesky climate science lists were managed on various Google sheets.

How lucky we all are to now have easy starter packs! ✅💚🌍

Follow all for a diverse set of climate updates in your feed 😊
