After a 5-year hiatus, The World Bank Land Conference held last month in Washington D.C. brought together over 1,000 development practitioners, donors, civil society advocates and government officials. In her reflections on what the conference achieved, our Senior Tenure Analyst Chloe Ginsburg writes for the Land Writes Blog: "The Takeaway was clear: The case for land tenure security as a prerequisite for climate, development, and biodiversity goals has now firmly been made, but many of the same challenges persist in advancing rights-based agendas."

Ushahidi’s Angela Oduor Lungati and Declan Ottaro are at the United Nations General Assembly this week, where they had the opportunity to reconnect with Lance Pierce, CEO of NetHope. Since joining NetHope, Ushahidi has become part of a dynamic global consortium of over 60 nonprofits and 70 technology partners, opening doors for impactful collaborations in humanitarian relief, long-term development, and ecosystem conservation. Together, we launched the Climate Equity Project in Uganda’s Yumbe District, focusing on climate adaptation and resilience. With escalating environmental challenges disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations, climate action is essential. By empowering local communities with real-time data, we aim to address issues like drought and resource scarcity effectively. Community inclusion is vital; disenfranchised communities, often most impacted by climate change, bring invaluable local knowledge to the table. We've engaged government officials, community leaders, and groups like YUGNET (Yumbe GBV Reduction Network) to strengthen coordination and elevate grassroots voices. Our discussions and training programs for data champions have fostered collaboration and informed policies that reflect community needs. With strong local support and diverse group involvement, we are making significant progress towards a resilient future for Yumbe, creating a framework that uplifts marginalized communities and protects the environment.
