Forested ecosystems play a central role in global efforts to mitigate climate change and halt biodiversity loss due to their large carbon storage and sequestration potential and importance for biodiversity. However, land use, biodiversity loss and climate change are deeply interconnected and pose challenges that require integrated solutions. Join us as our guest speaker presents insights and experiences from 11 studies focusing on evaluation and integration of carbon and greenhouse gas processes, and biodiversity impacts mainly in boreal forested ecosystems. The spatial scale of the studies presented ranges from detailed site-specific to a European scale, with a multi-disciplinary approach including integrated modelling and spatial prioritisation, mass-balance studies (tracking a contaminant’s path from its source to its ultimate destination within an environmental system), Earth Observation techniques (a process of acquiring observations of the Earth’s surface and atmosphere via remote sensing instruments), research infrastructure developments, and evaluation of policy measures and economic compensation schemes. Several studies also take a landscape approach, considering other ecosystems such as agricultural, wetland and freshwater ecosystems, as well as and greenhouse gas emissions from anthropogenic sources.

Fostering a diverse and inclusive volunteer workforce is a priority for many not-for-profit organisations. As lawyers, we see some tricky issues arise around discrimination, safety, screening and privacy law when organisations seek to embed diversity in their volunteer recruitment plan. Our challenge then is to use the law to support diversity. In this webinar, we’ll use practical case studies to highlight the kinds of legal issues your organisation needs to consider to confidently build and grow a diverse and strong volunteer workforce. We'll cover: A short, sharp overview of four key legal issues for a diverse volunteer team - discrimination, safety, screening, and privacy Case studies - applying the law to manage risk and embrace diversity Top tips on balancing your legal obligations to make volunteering more inclusive
