ICIMOD Annual Report 2010

The Annual Report reflects on ICIMOD’s continuing evolution over the past year, as exemplified in the three topics of biodiversity, youth engagement, and remote sensing. It includes an account of ICIMOD’s role in support of the Convention on Biological Diversity, and especially advocacy for mountain biodiversity and participation in the COP 10 event in Nagoya, Japan; presents some of the highlights of the international symposium on Benefiting from Earth Observation, including the launch of SERVIR-Himalaya; and discusses some of the ways in which ICIMOD is engaging and empowering young people in actions to address environmental challenges and climate and global change.
