Understanding Climate Change: From Basics to Action (in-person; 9.00 am-3:30 pm GMT)
2025-03-06 09:00 - 15:30 (Africa/Monrovia)
Environmental Parrot is excited to host “Understanding Climate Change: From Basics to Action”, a one-day educational event on March 6, 2025, in Monrovia, Liberia. This in-person event is designed to provide foundational knowledge about climate change while inspiring actionable solutions. It aims to empower individuals, communities, and organizations to take meaningful steps toward achieving UN SDG Goal 13: Climate Action. The event will demystify climate change by breaking it down into simple, digestible components, covering the science, impacts, and solutions. Participants will engage in interactive sessions, hands-on workshops, and open-floor discussions to explore practical climate solutions, such as reducing carbon footprints, adopting sustainable agriculture, and embracing renewable energy. By addressing these challenges within the context of Liberia—a nation particularly vulnerable to climate impacts—the event underscores the importance of local and community-led action. The day will include inspirational talks, expert-led discussions, and youth-focused activities designed to empower the next generation of climate leaders. Attendees will also have opportunities to network with peers, experts, and organizations working in the climate and environmental fields. By the end of the event, participants will have a clear understanding of climate change basics, actionable strategies for resilience and mitigation, and the inspiration to implement sustainable practices in their communities. This gathering is an invitation to individuals from all walks of life to join the movement for climate action and create a more sustainable future together.

The Asia Pacific School of Business Hosts 2026 SDG Global Action and Future Vision Week
2026-03-02 - 2026-03-06 | Hybrid
Event Description:
As the world reaches the critical midpoint of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the urgency to accelerate progress toward the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has never been more pronounced. Adopted by all UN Member States in 2015, the SDGs represent a universal blueprint for eradicating poverty, reducing inequality, combating climate change, and ensuring peace and prosperity for all people and the planet. Yet, global assessments reveal that progress across nearly half of the SDG targets has stalled, with some regressing due to overlapping crises—climate volatility, persistent economic disparities, public health vulnerabilities, and growing social fragmentation. In this pivotal moment, higher education institutions emerge not as passive observers, but as the primary architects of systemic, transformative change.
Business schools, in particular, hold a unique and irreplaceable position in driving SDG progress. As institutions that cultivate the next generation of corporate leaders, policymakers, social entrepreneurs, and global citizens, we are tasked with embedding sustainable development into the very DNA of leadership education and practice. The Asia Pacific School of Business (APSB) has long championed this mission, rooted in our core belief that business success and societal well-being are inextricably linked. For over two decades, APSB has stood as a premier institution of management education in the Asia Pacific— a region home to more than 60% of the world’s population, the engine of global economic growth, and a microcosm of both the world’s most pressing SDG challenges and its most innovative solutions. With our strategic campuses in Shenzhen—a global hub for green technology, circular economy, and low-carbon development—and Hanoi—a rapidly emerging center for inclusive urban growth and community-driven sustainability—APSB is uniquely positioned to bridge global SDG mandates with on-the-ground regional action.
Against this backdrop, APSB is honored to announce the 2026 SDG Global Action and Future Vision Week, an official flagship initiative hosted under the framework of the University Global Coalition (UGC), in partnership with the United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI), and aligned with the UGC’s annual SDG Action & Awareness Week (March 2–6, 2026). This five-day hybrid event unites a global online audience with in-person participants at our Shenzhen and Hanoi campuses, with a singular mission: to raise awareness of the SDGs among higher education students, faculty, and staff, build practical capacity for sustainable action, and inspire and empower our academic community to translate knowledge into tangible impact on their campuses and in their local communities.
This initiative is a testament to APSB’s unwavering commitment to the UGC and UNAI’s shared vision—one that leverages the collective power of academia to advance the UN’s global goals. It is more than a series of academic events: it is a call to action for the Asia Pacific higher education community to lead by example, to foster cross-border and cross-sector collaboration, and to position our region as a global leader in sustainable development. We invite students, faculty, staff, industry partners, civil society organizations, and global changemakers to join us in this vital endeavor— to turn awareness into action, vision into impact, and individual effort into a collective movement that advances the promise of the 2030 Agenda for all.

Foresight for Climate Resilience
2026-03-02 12:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York)
Event Description:
Learn from a panel of experts about how futures and foresights approaches can be used to build climate resilience in Canadian cities.
Cities around the world are increasingly planning for and responding to climate risks, trying to use long-term perspective to weigh actions today against a range of possible future outcomes that may take decades to materialize. Yet day-to-day demands and short planning cycles often make it difficult to look too far ahead.
While many solutions already exist, scaling them requires rethinking our approaches to governance, decision-making, and our societal values. That work begins with envisioning alternative futures and using foresight to try to imagine and anticipate what the future brings.
Join us on March 2nd from 12pm – 1pm EST at the Grebel Gallery for an engaging dialogue exploring practical tools and approaches to help cities envision and plan for more resilient futures. The event will explore what future climate risks cities face, what creative and design-based approaches exist for exploring future planning, and how cities can spark and support real change in their communities.

Third Edition of the International Virtual Workshop on Environmental Pollution Data Management within the Framework of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (SDGs)
2026-03-02 14:00 - 16:00 (America/Costa_Rica) | Virtual, GA
Event Description:
This event is a collaborative initiative involving academics and researchers from the Faculty of Agronomy and Veterinary Sciences of the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosí (Mexico), the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences of the National University of Cuyo (Argentina), and EARTH University (Costa Rica).
Within the framework of reflection on the United Nations 2030 Agenda and the formulation of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), encompassing 169 targets across the economic, social, and environmental dimensions, it is considered essential to assess their performance and impact from a global to a local scale. In particular, seven SDGs are of special interest, as several of their targets and scopes require robust data management in order to diagnose conditions, develop models, and generate projections that support decision-making across different sectors of society. These goals include: SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation; SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy; SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities; SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production; SDG 13: Climate Action; SDG 14: Life Below Water; and SDG 15: Life on Land.
The main objective of the workshop is to train students in the analysis and interpretation of environmental pollution data, enabling them to identify the applicable regulatory frameworks related to water, soil, and air, as well as to recognize prevention and mitigation strategies for environmental impacts aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals.
Throughout the workshop, reflections are conducted in relation to the 2030 Agenda. Participants are guided on the importance of environmental, social, and economic sustainability indicators, as well as technological indicators that have evolved over time and their relationship with indicators of water, soil, and air pollution. Special emphasis is placed on the relevance of national environmental information systems and on how issues related to water, soil, and air pollution are addressed from a technical and scientific perspective, considering information categories such as indices, variables, indicators-parameters, and the study of physicochemical and biological properties, among others.
Similarly, several key questions are addressed, such as: What considerations should be taken into account when studying contaminants in water, soil, and air? What can be investigated, and for what purpose should contaminants be studied? Examples of models documented in scientific studies are presented, illustrating the variables and indicators used to assess environmental impacts and pollution arising from anthropogenic and natural activities, as well as the importance of establishing direct and indirect relationships when addressing pollution issues. Finally, a practical component is carried out involving the analysis of specific environmental quality datasets for water, soil, and air, their interpretation within national and international regulatory frameworks, and the use of specialized software for contaminant modeling.
