    It's finally happened, I've become someone that goes running on holiday.Because it's for a good cause! Like every other millennial you know, I'm doing a half marathon in 7 weeks and 3 days time to raise money for Sobell House Hospice. Please consider sponsoring my 21km attempt!https://lnkd.in/dwJznSbtI see and hear every day the incredible impact the #hospice make, and how the support of the charity lets the team deliver a kind of care for people they might not otherwise be able to.The dedicated staff provide compassionate care to people at the end of their lives, ensuring comfort and dignity during a challenging time. I was just reading the other day about an outreach programme they have for providing #palliativecareto unhoused people because everyone approaching the end of their life should have access to high-quality care and be given the opportunity to make choices about their life, their care and where they wish to die.Me running a silly little #halfmarathonwon't really change the world - but your #donation might

    So nice to meet up again with these experts from across government and civil society to make headway into the nittygritty of how Malawi will use the local government planning system to improve adaptation and resilience in line with the LDC Group's vision for how the whole #climatefinancesystem can work better for those experiencing climate impacts. Thanks for hosting me this week, as always, Yamikani Idriss, Patrick Likongwe, Innocent Zulu, Samuel M. Chimowaand all

    I'm looking forward to meeting up with colleagues in #Bonn at #SB60 next week, lets meet up if you're there. ⤵ The LDC's own initiative LIFE-AR is seeking to improve adaptation and resilience in a way that works on LDC terms. Countries in the group are trialing different long term non-projectized approaches to delivering climate finance from the international to local levels in a way that enables spending on community priorities as identified in a whole-of-society manner. A recent interview with Commissioner Joseph Epitu, Ministry of Water and Environment Uganda, gives more details here https://lnkd.in/dCDhveEt As if this isn't tricky enough (!) on guidance from the LIFE-AR Board (chaired by the LDC Chair, and made of LDC representatives, some development partners and IIED)we are now focusing on part of the initiative's medium term goals - to connect varied sources of #climatefinance to these context-specific processes that countries have strengthened and in turn to seek to improve all of those areas of climate finance access that are so challenging. If you fancy talking climate finance next week - let me know 🙌 International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED)

    It was great to join this event the other week. I hope that as new researchers come into the charity sector, they join the growing momentum towards understanding and enacting good and ethical partnership - in research and in charity type organisational operations. To quote from the work of my colleagues at International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) "Genuine collaboration requires addressing power imbalances and must be based on a shared understanding of equity and fairness." For more on this topic, take a look at "Exploring equity in partnerships: lessons from five case studies" by Tracy C. Kajumba and many others available here: https://lnkd.in/ekXuuXK2One of the case studies covered is the LDC Initiative for Effective Adaptation and Resilience (LIFE-AR) within which I have been working for a while now. I like how the group designed the initiative's governance structure to prize LDC perspectives on an equal platform to the development partners, and how the initiative is structured on not just "offers" from the LDC group on how they seek to have climate resilient people, economies and ecosystems, but also on "asks" of the development partners to also change their practices to achieve a common goal. When introducing myself at the event I said I was a researcher focusing on climate finance- but it would perhaps be more accurate to say that its the ethical partnerships in climate finance which make up most of my work.
