As Dr. Kirsten Dunlop, CEO of Climate-KIC, says "innovation isn’t only about technology; it’s about transforming ourselves: our mindsets, our assumptions, our habits, our businesses and the places that matter to us."   In 2025, building a resilient Community of Impact Professionals driving innovation all around the world will be as relevant as ever. 👉 A united Community can be the solution to the political fragmentation of our current landscape and a reaction to the lackluster results achieved at #COP29 and #COP16. 📅 Join this critical debate on Thursday 12 December at our latest Community CONNECT.    Participate in a panel with Kirsten Dunlop and other Climate Innovation Experts and discuss priorities, challenges, and opportunities as we look ahead to 2025 with other Innovators and Impact Professionals.  🌿   Join the Community today to get access to this and many other networking opportunities. 🔗 Sign up now: https://lnkd.in/e3B9gHFa #ClimateCommunity #ClimateAction #ClimateInnovation

"Indigenous people have a very intimate knowledge of environmental conservation. [...] This knowledge that nature provides and teaches us, we share it, and we change along with it." We had the privilege to interview Lázaro Mecha, Chief of the Indigenous Congress MAJE EMBERA DRUA of Panama, at COP16 Colombia. He shared insights about the deep knowledge and relationship that indigenous communities have with nature, and the importance of listening to their voices to protect human rights and live harmoniously with our ecosystems.🌿 Watch the teaser below and go to our Community platform Climate-HIVE to see the full interview.

🎤 "Investing in skills without rethinking the whole system first will waste resources producing more of the thinking we are trapped in and fail to prepare us for a volatile, uncertain world. We need a transformative approach to human development—experiential, relational, and adaptive—focused on learning, integrating AI, and storytelling, not clinging to outdated models." With these words, Dr. Kirsten Dunlop, CEO of Climate-KIC, supported a radical systemic transformation that goes beyond skills development during the High-Level Climate Champions debate at COP29 Azerbaijan. Read more about this thought-provoking event below. Do you also believe we urgently need a more systemic, nature- and human-centric approach to transform our current extractive models?

❓What’s really at stake at COP29? As COP29 Azerbaijan just started, it’s easy to get lost in the whirlwind of information coming up. But why does this COP matter, and what will it mean for climate communities and the whole world if key agreements aren’t met? 🎧 In our latest How Could We? episode, Anne-Sophie Clulow-Garrigou interviews Megan Rowling, editor of Climate Home News, to pull back the curtain on COP29’s most pressing challenges and the tough decisions facing global leaders in Baku. In this episode, Megan Rowling provides an insider’s perspective on: • The key challenges and critical objectives for COP29 • The climate finance gap, why developed countries are struggling to meet their financial commitments and the push to involve emerging economies • How the failure to agree on climate finance could impact each country's nationally determined contributions (NDCs) and prevent ambitious climate action, particularly for developing nations. • How shifts in major powers, like a potential U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Agreement post Trump election, could influence or undermine international efforts, and what that means for global climate action. Whether you're attending COP29 or following from afar, this conversation will deepen your understanding of what’s at stake. 🎧 Listen now on: Spotify: https://bit.ly/3AyhfE1 Climate-HIVE: https://lnkd.in/eZJSBVdC As a Climate Innovation Community, we have the power to drive transformation and changes in the world, even in times of fragmentation.
