Rationale and Objectives. Recent disastrous events has penetrated consciousness of every sector both in the public as well as private spheres locally and internationally which is now generally recognized as being influenced by the global changing climate such as increasing global temperature or more popularly known as global warming. Global warming is caused by uncontrolled emission of greenhouse gases (GHGs) to the atmosphere to the levels that produce greenhouse effect, resulting to the warming of the atmosphere that threatens normal life cycles on earth. The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warned that an increase in global temperature by 2 degrees Celsius will bring about disasters globally. This will then be a point of no return for the human race. They therefore warned that international action should be done to keep temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius. Industrialized countries are the largest contributors to globally emitted GHGs starting from the industrial revolution in Europe and the Americas until today although new industrializing countries such as China and India are being tagged as crucial GHG emitter. It is then just proper for the rich and industrialized countries to take the lead in reducing emission and compensate for the global consequences of their actions. Mitigation and Adaptation are crucial frameworks in dealing with climate change and disaster risks that must be done by all. However, on the issue of climate change, while this can be done by everyone, rich countries are in a position to mitigate climate change, while poor and developing countries should focus more on adaptation in so far as climate change is concerned. Mitigation and adaptation, however, should be pursued fully by all as it applies to disasters. It is projected that the impacts of climate change and hazards will be severe and far reaching such that prevention and preparedness are crucial for protection of life and property. This joint undertaking between the local government of Quezon and IDEAS therefore is essential in building capacities not only of the service provider but that of the potential victims as well. This is based on the premise that climate change and disaster risk management should be shared by all stakeholders. More importantly, the participation of the communities is critical in coming up with common understanding and analysis of disaster risks and therefore a common bases for planning.

Rationale and Objectives. The Arctic plays host to a globally significant array of biodiversity. The size and nature of Arctic ecosystems make them of critical importance to the biological, chemical and physical balance of the globe. Dramatic changes (e.g. climate change) now underway are threatening the resilience and sustainability of the Arctic’s biodiversity and the overall balance of its ecosystems. Continued rapid change in the Arctic will have global repercussions affecting the planet as a whole. Enhanced availability of data and information on biodiversity will be critical for informing decisions relating to the Arctic in the light of these changes. GBIF’s Participant countries currently include seven of the eight member states of the Arctic Council (Russia is not a participant, Canada is an associate participant, and the other Arctic Council member states are voting members). The data mobilized through GBIF include over three million occurrence records from north of the Arctic Circle encompassing almost 20,000 species. These data come from over 1,000 datasets published from institutions in 30 countries. At the same time, the CBMP mobilizes significant volumes of data for the purposes of its monitoring activities. Through technical and institutional collaboration, the

  • BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The partnership proposed by the Cooperator was selected due to merit review evaluations from the 2017 Notice of Funding Opportunity P17AS00037. The Cooperator demonstrated expertise in disciplines and subject areas of relevance to cooperative research and training. The Cooperator met the program interests of NPS with expertise, facilities, experience, diversity of programs, and history of collaborative research projects. The Cooperator helps the NPS-CESU to meet its objectives to:  Provide research, technical assistance and education to NPS for land management, and research;  Develop a program of research, technical assistance and education that involves the biological, physical, social, and cultural sciences needed to address resources issues and interdisciplinary problem-solving at multiple scales and in an ecosystem context at the local, regional, and national level; and  Place special emphasis on the working collaboration among NPS, universities, and their related partner institutions. Title: Provide research, technical assistance and education for resource management and research The CESU network seeks to provide scientifically-based information on the nature and status of selected biological, physical, and cultural resources occurring within the parks in a form that increases its utility for making management decisions, conducting scientific research, educating the public, developing effective monitoring programs, and developing management strategies for resource protection. Studying the resources present in NPS parks benefits the Cooperator’s goal of advancing knowledge through scientific discovery, integration, application, and teaching, which lead toward a holistic understanding of our environmental and natural resources. The Cooperator is a public research university, sharing research, educational, and technological strengths with other institutions. Through inter-institutional collaboration, combined with the unique contributions of each constituent institution, the Cooperator strives to contribute substantially to the cultural, economic, environmental, scientific, social and technological advancement of the nation. The NPS expects there to be substantial involvement between itself and the Cooperator in carrying out the activities contemplated in this Agreement. The primary purpose of this study is not the acquisition of property or services for the direct benefit or use by the Federal Government, but rather to accomplish a public purpose of support or stimulation authorized the Legislative Authorities in ARTICLE II. This agreement fulfills the Public Purpose of support and economic stimulation for the following reasons:  Projects will engage recipients, partners, communities, and/or visitors in shared environmental stewardship.  Projects will promote greater public and private participation in historic preservation programs and activities. The project builds resource stewardship ethics in its participants.  The information, products and/or services identified or developed by projects will be shared through a variety of strategies to increase public awareness, knowledge and support for historic preservation and stewardship of the nation’s cultural and historical heritage.  Projects will support the Government’s objective to provide opportunities for youth to learn about the environment by spending time working on projects in National Parks. The NPS receives the indirect benefit of completing conservation projects.  Projects will motivate youth participants to become involved in the natural, cultural and /or historical resource protection of their communities and beyond.  Students gain “real world” or hands-on experience outside of the classroom of natural, cultural and/or historical resource projects.  The scientific community and/or researchers external to NPS gains by new knowledge provided through research and related results dissemination of natural, cultural and/or historical resource information.  Projects assist in the creation, promotion, facilitation, and/or improvement of the public’s understanding of natural, cultural, historic, recreational and other aspects of areas such as ecological conservation areas, and state and local parks.
