1/38. Today is the eighth day of the #BonnClimateConference (#SB58) and it saw the closing plenary of the Technical Dialogue of the #GST, discussions on the #SantiagoNetwork, the continuation of the #NCQG’s 6th Technical Expert Dialogue and the first stocktaking plenary. 🧵 Image
2/38. Today also saw a focus on #HumanRights with a number of side events and an action drawing attention to the key message that “there can be no #ClimateJustice without #HumanRights”.
3/38. Joining "No #ClimateJustice without #CivicSpace and #HumanRights: zooming in on the @UNFCCC process"* with @ciel_tweets, @amnesty and @350, we heard important messages on the need for safe #CivicSpace under the @UNFCCC so that we can make our #LossAndDamage demands heard!

Why do people resist #climateadaptation? Our new paper uses a sociological resistance lens to identify overt and covert #popularresistance in 56 adaptation papers and analyses the Sites, Repertoires and Consequences of resistance to adaptation (1/X) doi.org/10.1016/j.gloe…
Societal responses to risks of #floods, #droughts, or #hurricanes – even those using a language of participation – might follow historical development pathways, strive to maintain the status quo, and directly or indirectly serve elite interests (2/X)
In recent years, we have seen an upsurge of civil society actors who co-produce adaptation solutions directly and mobilise for increased action, compensation, and reparation by those in power, for instance under the banner of #climatejustice (3/X)

History is written by the winners, which is why #Luddite is a slur meaning "technophobe" and not a badge of honor meaning, "Person who goes beyond asking what technology does, to asking who it does it *for* and who it does it *to*."

🚨Paper Alert🚨

Marine protected areas #MPAs are increasingly promoted as #ocean-based #solution to #ClimateChange, but their contribution to climate change #adaptation and #mitigation remains contentious. Our meta-analysis of 22,403 papers brings clarity. Link below.

🧵(1/17)
🙈Spoiler alert🙉

#FullyProtected #MPAs can can significantly enhance:

©️ carbon sequestration
🌊 coastal protection
🐟 biodiversity
🐡 reproductive capacity of marine organisms
🎣 fishers’ catch
💰 fishers’ income

We identified the potential “climate pathways” through which #MPAs could contribute to #ClimateChange #mitigation and #adaptation. First along mitigation and adaptation dimensions, and then distinguishing among #ecological and #social dimensions of adaptation.

Finally, the #GoldacreReview is published! (During Parliamentary Easter holidays, mid-ping-pong on the #HealthAndCareBill...)

It's 221 pages - each PDF page is a double page spread - so this could be a lo-o-o-ong [Thread].

Here goes...
First point to note, in the Terms of Reference (p5), is that this is about "access to #NHSdata by #researchers, #commissioners, and #innovators" - i.e. #Planning and #CommercialReUse - so it is directly relevant to the operation of millions of people's #NationalDataOptOuts...

🧵 THREAD N°21 : les DAO

Il y a quelques mois, une #DAO a levé plus de 47 millions de dollars en 3 semaines pour racheter un des exemplaires originaux de la constitution américaine.

Que sont les DAOs et quelle est leur utilité ? Thread du jour👇 Image
1/ Une #DAO est une "decentralized autonomous organization", une communauté décentralisée et auto-gérée.

Une DAO réunit des personnes qui souhaitent s'associer dans un certain but : créer un produit ou service, lever des fonds pour acheter la constitution... Tout est possible.
2/ Mais pourquoi ces personnes créeraient-elles une DAO plutôt qu'une #entreprise si elles veulent créer un produit ?

Pourquoi ne créeraient-elles pas juste un groupe #Facebook pour s'organiser autour d'un but commun comme l'achat d'un objet rare ?

The first youth policy pitch around Anti-Corruption at the #OGP #Youth #Summit suggests countering
corruption through better information, stronger institutions, and more inclusive civic participation. "To fight corruption in the long run, cultural change & transformation is key."
The next proposal is around civic space and #participation - guaranteeing access to information, transparency of actions & inclusion of marginalized groups and grassroots communities. Such efforts will build trust between marginalized communities and governments. #OGPYouthSummit
The 3rd #policy recommendation centers on inclusive digital innovation. "Affordability, infrastructure & hardware limitations and inequities plague the digital world just as they have done in the past. Govts should consider how to equalize digital access for vulnerable groups."

@medConfidential's formulation - #consensual, #safe and #transparent - addresses a subtly different problem, which is that NO system will...
...always be 100% #trustworthy, and certainly not 100% #trusted - given #trust is ALWAYS 'in the eye of the beholder', and NEVER a property of a system.

@phumzileunwomen sets out our five goals for #WomenPeacePower:
1. #Participation: A radical shift in women’s meaningful participation in peacemaking, peacekeeping and peacebuilding, ensuring that women are fully involved in each and every peace and political process that the United Nations supports.
2. #HumanRights: The UN’s unconditional support for women’s human rights and women human rights defenders. The UN must be the loudest voice in their defense! Sexual and reproductive rights are core women's human rights. #WHRD #SRHR

The ideal social system incentivizes #participation by everyone on vast global #platforms where they exchange their time and its inherent value to generate sufficient #profit that, when shared, meets their basic needs and creates opportunities for their reasonable quality of life
In “Social Action,” a compilation prepared by the Research Department of the Universal House of Justice, the following selection (no. 119) bahai.org/library/author… emphasizes the significance of participation, platforms, and profiting:
“Access to knowledge is the right of every human being, and participation in its generation, application and diffusion a responsibility that all must shoulder in the great enterprise of building a prosperous world civilization—each...according to his or her talents and abilities”

To make fundamental changes in the behavior of a #SocialSystem requires its #agents adopt an alternative #purpose and #OrganizingPrinciples to those currently in place. If successful, this shift will create a new social system with significantly different #rules and #boundaries.
Any social system change process begins with a set of conversations among agents in the system about how to better apply its purpose and organizing principles. This leads to experimentation with alternatives, then modification of the rules and boundaries to adopt those that work.
Important topics for #conversation at the outset of an intentional #SocialSystem #ChangeProcess are those that bring #agents in the system together to recall and / or clarify the system’s #purpose and #OrganizingPrinciples then to either confirm them or challenge their relevance.
