YoKo Village | The future of the sustainable co-working communities

Today’s global challenges, from climate change to health and digitalisation, are of unprecedented scientific complexity and transcend national borders, rendering isolated action ineffective. A prime example in this regard, the COVID-19 pandemic has drawn attention to the need for more science-informed public decision-making and international scientific collaboration on solutions to global crises, once again making science-policy interfaces and science diplomacy a priority for governments worldwide. At global, regional, and national levels of governance science-policy interfaces, fostering relations between scientists and policymakers to enable joint formulation of knowledge and policy solutions, are today widely established.

October 2022 brief extended to cover more local communities to contribute towards Sustainability.  Climate change causes changes in forests, their ecological functions and ecosystem services.  SDG 13 aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change and drive adaptation actions.  Hope COP27 of the year will recognise the necessity of the simple solutions and inclusion of everyone in climatic problems just like you can start this journey by a simple step – planting a tree around us.  The effect that would have on global warming is unimaginably positive.
