Ipieca supported and took part in the forum, which highlighted sector-specific solutions to accelerate biodiversity mainstreaming, inform COP17 outcomes and strengthen regional reporting and implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework.
The three-day workshop, run by Ipieca, facilitated by UNEP-WCMC, and hosted by PETRONAS in Kuala Lumpur was followed by a field trip to a peat reserve to see biodiversity management and restoration practices in real life.
As my secondment with Ipieca comes to an end after more than six incredible years, I’ve been reflecting on the milestones, challenges, achievements but especially people that shaped this journey. Numbers often tell the story better than words, so I’d like to share some of the figures that defined my time.
Collaboration was central to our activities this quarter, including publishing a joint IUCN-Ipieca guidance on co-use opportunities in wind and solar, signing a Memorandum of Cooperation with the ASEAN Council on Petroleum and Energy, and co-hosting a series of webinars with other industry associations, which reached over 2,600 participants.
Ipieca’s strategy will lead the integration of climate, nature and people actions across the oil, gas and alternative energy industry value chain, driving the delivery of diverse pathways to net-zero, supporting the resilience and rehabilitation of local communities and ecosystems, and enabling the industry to adapt to the changing reporting landscape.
