The global-level climate negotiations at COP26 wou The global-level climate negotiations at COP26 wound up in the second week of November, giving way to the Glasgow Climate Pact. Amidst the drama, late-night negotiations, and frenzy a few demands were met, while a few others remain unmet, especially in the realm of climate finance for adaptation. Since these international negotiations can directly impact the lives and livelihoods of people of the participating countries, some questions remain important: how did the negotiations around climate finance transpire, and how should developing countries like India prepare to make use of international finance efficiently?

Replacing Pity With Potential Can Transform Disabl Replacing Pity With Potential Can Transform Disabled Children's Rights. Earlier this month, the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment announced its intent to sensitise and train 10,000 key functionaries (such as government officials, teachers and healthcare workers) in matters related to disabilities, and rehabilitation of persons with disabilities.
While this is certainly a commendable move, there is a lot more than must be done to build a truly inclusive India. The biggest hurdle in this journey is to change the perception that people and society at large have about children with disabilities. In conversation with @chinnappa_chirag, Jo Chopra-McGowan of @latikaroyfoundation explains why this is important and how this can start in the classroom.
