Posters
The showcase will include the presentation of innovative knowledge, solutions, and policies that young change-makers are contributing to for resilience-building in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH). The posters cover a wide range of themes which embrace resilience-building as a key concept. From 92 posters, 20 have been selected through a competitive process for the presentation. The posters represent change-makers from all eight countries of the Hindu Kush Himalaya—Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan. At the end of the conference, the top five contributions will receive special recognition.
Photos
The Resilient HKH Photo-Essay Contest features stories capturing the unique challenges related to resilience building in the HKH as well as possible solutions leading to a more resilient HKH. The photo-essays capture the impacts of change as well as resilient solutions and up-stream and down-stream connections. They represent mountain voices so that they may be heard at the conference.
