Looking forward to see how gender responsive climate action will be supported by FCDO. Shame that moves toward a feminist foreign policy were ditched in election run up @PreetKGillMP @AnnelieseDodds

Rebuilding our development reputation. Genuine partnership with the Global South. Economic growth. Climate action. Empowering women and girls. Equality at the heart of all we do. Change begins now.

Experience on gender equality bodes well, apparently scant international development experience. Couldn't be worse than @D_G_Alexander
Collins of Highbury@Lord_Collins

@JohanSchaar @AndersWijkman @CarlssonSwe @schipper_lisa @PetJanne @FlorianKrampe I still think back to discussions with Johan and colleagues during preparations of the CCC&D report. So much of what was discussed was precient of what climate adaptation in development deficit meant This was due in large part to Johan's guidance and humanitarian approach.

People in Scotland want stronger climate action & the general election is a key opportunity to remind candidates & parties of this.

@schipper_lisa Yes Lisa, 'indicatoritis' as we call it is a symptom of the wider malaise caused by not starting adaptation MEL with a theory of change. See iied.org/tracking-adapt…

Great to see Africa’s youth tackling environmental problems & creating green jobs.

Today is 5 years since @ScotParl declared a #ClimateEmergency but it hasn't delivered an emergency response.
In our welcome letter to @ScotGovFM we urge him to lead a government that delivers fair action to address the emergency with the urgency needed

@BenMacpherson asking good questions. As uncertainty leads to timidity in political will, @ChiefExecCCC encourages leaders to speak of the benefits to us all of climate action. Let's turn the political vacuum positive by citizens' climate action. @sccscot
Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee@SP_NetZero
Yesterday, @BenMacpherson asked @ChiefExecCCC how he thought we could all get our collective political discourse in a better place, when it comes to achieving net zero 👇 Missed the session? 👉ow.ly/sTkE50Rml93

Whoever runs the @ScotGov, investing in tackling the climate crisis isn’t a choice, it’s a necessity.
The people of Scotland want climate leadership and for all parties to work together to deliver action.
Fair climate action will unlock major benefits.

It is a great honour to share this opportunity in memory of my good friend and colleague, Dr Saleemul Huq.
Applications are being sought for a new scholarship and award for researchers from developing countries for solutions to loss and damage caused by climate change.

The lack of urgency to deliver Scotland's emissions reduction stands in stark contrast to Scotland's declaration of international climate solidarity at COP26. The latter requires the former. Cross party support for achieving climate goals should be the priority. @MairiMcAllan
Stop Climate Chaos Scotland@sccscot
Today @scotgov announced plans to weaken climate laws, axing the 2030 emissions reduction target. While every @ScotParl party has a role to play @scotgov cannot duck responsibility. Our climate promises are broken - @ScotGovFM get Scotland’s climate commitments back on track.

@marenaja Maren - reading your chapter and the others on Bangladesh and learning a lot. Travelling to north Bangladesh soon to examine options for locally led climate adaptation.
