Shubhanshi reframes sustainability as a crisis of broken relationships, not just broken systems. Drawing from the Bhagavad Gita, she introduces "Akash," an invisible field of connection often missing from modern climate discourse. Through personal stories and indigenous wisdom, she argues that ecological collapse mirrors inner fragmentation, emphasizing sustainability as relational restoration.

An 18-year-old filmmaker and environmental advocate, Shubhanshi Chakraborty directed the acclaimed, award-winning film "Natok." A UN Geneva Youth Icon, she studies Environmental Science and Sustainability and authored "Past is Forward." This TEDx talk highlights her commitment to rebuilding our relationship with the Earth.

eLocust4 enables national officers in locust-affected countries to record and transmit real-time field data via satellite. This data feeds FAO's Desert Locust Information Service (DLIS) in Rome, forming the basis for a global monitoring and early warning system. It facilitates situation assessment, forecasting, and timely warnings to countries and donors, supporting a preventive control strategy to mitigate devastating locust plagues.

The Center for Biological Diversity is again under attack. Far-right congressmen on the House Resources Committee have launched a baseless "investigation" against us for protecting the Arctic and polar bears from an oil conglomerate. Our Executive Director, Kierán, denounced this as a weaponization of government power, a smear tactic by oil-funded politicians to silence environmental advocates.

This "investigation" is a politically motivated witch hunt, devoid of legal merit and making absurd accusations. To combat this antidemocratic power-mongering and defend our critical work, we've established the Freedom Defense Fund. Your support is crucial to our survival against these persistent threats. Please donate today, or consider a monthly contribution to sustain our defense.

The FAO's Rift Valley Fever Early Warning Decision Support Tool (RVF DST) is an innovative online platform. It strengthens early warning and response to Rift Valley fever (RVF), a persistent zoonotic disease in Africa. Built under the One Health framework, the RVF DST enhances real-time monitoring and multi-sectoral collaboration across animal, human, and environmental health.

By combining satellite data, climate trends, and field surveillance, the tool predicts RVF outbreaks up to three months ahead. This early insight allows farmers, veterinarians, and policymakers to take preventive action, protecting livestock, livelihoods, and lives. The RVF DST shifts countries from reactive response to proactive prevention, fostering resilient health systems and long-term One Health preparedness.

In southern Angola’s Banda Chibia, drought once forced residents like Rita to walk for water. This struggle has ended. Through a partnership between the Government of Angola, the European Union, and FAO, the Banda Chibia Dam now secures water for agriculture and livelihoods. With over 21 million cubic meters capacity, it irrigates 750 hectares, supporting thousands and enabling climate-smart agriculture and resilience.

Farmer Field Schools taught communities efficient water management and sustainable farming, resulting in green fields, year-round harvests, and improved incomes. Rita now harvests food, not searching for water. This project demonstrates how partnership and innovation transform vulnerability into hope.
