The discussion was part of the series of events organised on the occasion of ICIMOD’s 25th anniversary with a view to understanding the major challenges in the region and the role of a regional institution such as ICIMOD, with a focus on the mountain agenda in the context of climate change. The discussion revolved around 2 broad themes:
- the key issues and challenges posed to the HKH region by climate change and
- determining how to deal with these issues and challenges and identifying the possible role of ICIMOD.
The main themes of the deliberation and discussion are presented in the article.
