AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoCOP31 Priorities: Nepal plans to press for climate justice, Himalayan protection, adaptation and support for climate-related loss and damage at the UN climate summit in Antalya, November 9–20. Officials say the country faces severe climate risks despite contributing little to global emissions; a national consultation is planned for October 29. Flood Recovery: More than six weeks after the August 26 disaster swept away their Rasuwa home, elderly couple Nangsi and Singhbir Tamang are rebuilding in temporary shelter. The couple had also been displaced by the 2015 earthquake, underscoring the long-term strain on mountain communities facing repeated disasters. Mountain Hazard Preparedness: A new international partnership, M-CHAIN, launched in Chengdu on October 18 to advance cooperation on mountain-hazard early warnings and risk governance. In a separate opinion, a Nepal disaster-security system organized around river corridors is urged, since floods and debris flows can cross district boundaries faster than local response systems can coordinate.
