Climate Science Literacy The United Nations (UN) recognizes that climate change is a threat to global peace and security, and economic development. Increasing land and ocean temperatures and changing precipitation patterns, as well as the increasing number and intensity of extreme weather events have an adverse impact on arable land and food production, as well as fisheries and aquaculture, bringing the food-water-energy nexus as the potential trigger of sizeable climate related migration and social discontent and unrest. With the current COVID-19 pandemic and its zoonotic origins the focus on the biodiversity-climate change-health nexus has become pertinent.

Les réserves de biosphères et les géo parcs au service de la durabilité environnementale en Afrique centrale Les réserves de biosphère et les géo parcs sont des sites d'apprentissage du développement durable du fait de leurs fonctions essentielles de conservation de la biodiversité et de la géodiversité et de lutte contre le changement climatique. Ils ont un potentiel important en Afrique centrale qui constitue le deuxième poumon vert de la planète. Mais la moitié des pays de la région ne disposent pas de réserve de biosphère. Aucun pays n'abrite un géo parc.
A cet effet, une série d'activités seront menées afin de soutenir la création de ces sites, de renforcer les capacités institutionnelles et de gouvernance des sites existants, d'améliorer la mise à jour des données et de promouvoir l'économie verte en lien avec la restauration écologique.

Armenia - Emergency Assistance - Inclusion of forcibly displaced refugee children from Nagorno-Karabakh in education process through promoting their psycho-social resilience The request is submitted in the context of the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh, due to the blockade of the Lachin corridor by Azerbaijan, which has caused an exodus of the entire population of Nagorno-Karabakh.

These children experience psychological trauma, stress, communication challenges and grievances caused by the loss of their homes and the horrors of humanitarian crisis. The situation created gaps in the educational program. 
The requested amount will be used for organizing educational activities, purchasing equipment, producing and distributing information materials related to these activities.
Using biosphere reserves and ecohydrology for environmental sustainability in the Sahel region The convergence of increased climatic shocks and continued deterioration of the fragile Sahel environments present a challenge of significant scale as most countries and the poorest segments of society have a high dependency on natural resources and livestock for their livelihood. In arid zones, dry spells and droughts lead to increased pressures on the already fragile environment thus impacting ecosystem sustainability. UNESCO's biosphere reserves and Geo-Parks offer good demonstration sites for solutions to these challenges and ecohydrology can be used to advance ecological and hydrological understanding that could be used to enhance the overall integrity of ecosystems.

Emphasis will also be placed on promoting the participation of groups that are left behind, vulnerable or excluded, including youth and women and girls.
MPA Europe Marine Protected Areas Europe (MPA Europe) will map the optimal locations for Marine Protected Areas (MPA) in European seas using measures covering the range of biodiversity from species to ecosystems, including habitats. An atlas will provide transparency, traceability and enable reproducibility of the results. Its synthesis will show stakeholders (MSP, NGO, students, researchers) why areas have been prioritised. The use of decision support software will enable alternative network designs based on stakeholder preferences and could thus support wider MSP beyond the subject and study area. UNESCO will be involved in the species modelling and data distribution.

Supporting youth employment through historic urban regeneration in pilot countries of the Caribbean The resource mobilization effort will allow UNESCO Office for the Caribbean to reinforce the existing successful partnership with the EU in the Caribbean, by conceiving a project proposal that targets a key Governments' development priority in selected pilot countries of the Caribbean, namely, the requalification of the historic downtown areas and the establishment of a cultural trail for visitors in capital cities. By targeting youth employment through cultural heritage safeguarding and cultural and creative industries enhancement, and by targeting the reuse of the building for socially useful activities, disadvantaged communities would also directly benefit from this investment, which will hopefully create a snowball effect if paired with banks and private sector further investments.
