This workshop report summarises discussions from a South Asia regional consultation workshop held in Kathmandu in March 2023.
14 experts from the Southeast Asia region met with the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) and REDAA to co-design research-to-action priorities that the REDAA programme in South Asia can address — and to ensure that the REDAA programme is shaped to work closely with key stakeholders in the region.
Inspired by ICIMOD's scoping study of research-to-action priorities for the REDAA in South Asia, findings from an online survey, and drawing on their own experiences, workshop participants discussed and highlighted key opportunities and challenges for addressing environmental degradation and ways forward to reverse environmental degradation in the region.
