Dr Chanthavy Vongkhamheng is a hands-on biology major graduate who goes to the field to apply what he has learned. Dr Vongkhamheng has been conducting wildlife surveys across Lao PDR for preliminary research data that are used by many conservation projects in the country.

Two of these projects are biodiversity assessments of two major peatlands of Lao PDR:
✅ The Nong Youp Wetland in Vientiane
✅ The Beung Naphat Wetland in Champasak province

The assessments and research are supported by the EU via the SUPA Programme. Want to know more about this story and the SUPA programme? Check it out in the EU-ASEAN Blue Book 2022 at euinasean.eu/bluebook2022

Speaking of coffee, climate change impacts coffee production, which prompted Margaret Watanabe and her husband to start the Coffee Heritage Project in 2010, to support coffee farmers, including with trademark registration.

Margaret works with a lot of women farmers in Northern Sagada, Philippines. She said, ‘these women are farmers and mothers; and even if they know having trademarks can help protect their products, they just don’t have the time or the capacity to apply for them’.

A recent study from the ASEAN Regional Integration Support from the EU on Intellectual Property Rights (ARISE+ IPR) shows that women in rural areas have limited access to economic opportunities. However, there are benefits in promoting and educating these women on IPR protection especially as they are often involved in community-based industries: IPR knowledge can protect these women from scammers.

New tech, new system, new efficient ways to do things, right? ⚙️ 📈 ✅

That's exactly what Captain Jani does. With the support from the EU-South East Asia Cooperation on Mitigating Climate Change Impact from Civil Aviation (EU-SEA CCCA) CORSIA project, Capt. Jani and the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) team are working to develop and implement the Aviation Emissions Data Management System.

This system streamlines processes regarding data, which is an improvement as Captain Jani said that "we used to do this manually, but with the new system, we can do it faster, more efficiently and more accurately"

Teknologi baharu, sistem baharu, cara baharu yang efisien untuk melakukan sesuatu, bukan? ⚙️ 📈 ✅

Itulah yang dilakukan oleh Kapten Jani. Dengan sokongan daripada projek CORSIA Kerjasama EU-Asia Tenggara dalam hal Pengurangan Impak Perubahan Iklim daripada Penerbangan Awam (EU-SEA CCCA),

Kapt. Jani dan pasukan Pihak Berkuasa Penerbangan Awam Malaysia (CAAM) sedang berusaha untuk membangunkan dan melaksanakan Sistem Pengurusan Data Emisi Penerbangan.

Sistem ini menyelaraskan proses berkenaan dengan data, yang merupakan penambahbaikan kerana Kapten Jani berkata “kami lakukan perkara ini secara manual sebelum ini, tetapi dengan sistem baharu, kami boleh lakukan dengan lebih cepat, lebih berkesan dan lebih tepat”

Ahmad Saleh is a man on a mission.

He never thought that he would be a farmer like his parents, but now he is one. He has noticed that the earth is sick and it's up to us to save it. So begins his mission! He started one of the biggest organic farms in Central Java, Indonesia, the Sawangan Organic Farmers Association (GATOS). GATOS farms span across 425 hectares of land, with over 2,000 members taking care of it.

Ahmad and GATOS eliminate the use of chemicals and pesticides as they want to leave their lands healthy as their legacy for their kids and grandkids.

They produce over 7,500 tonnes of rice a year and have been supported by the EU-ASEAN ARISE+ programme's Mutual Recognition Arrangement on Organic Agriculture Products (MRA- OAP) initiative. This provides credibility to qualified producers like Ahmad and GATOS.

Ahmad Saleh adalah seorang pria dengan misi.

Dia tidak pernah berpikir bahwa dia akan menjadi petani seperti orang tuanya, tetapi sekarang dia adalah salah satunya. Dia memperhatikan bahwa bumi sedang sakit dan ini tergantung pada kita untuk menyelamatkannya. Jadi, dia memulai misinya! Berawal ketika dia memulai salah satu pertanian organik terbesar di Jawa Tengah, Indonesia, Gabungan Petani Organik Sawangan (GATOS). Pertanian GATOS terbentang di lahan seluas 425 hektar, dengan lebih dari 2.000 anggota yang merawatnya.

Ahmad dan GATOS menghilangkan penggunaan bahan kimia dan pestisida karena mereka ingin meninggalkan tanah yang sehat sebagai warisan untuk anak-anak dan cucu-cucu mereka.

Mereka memproduksi lebih dari 7.500 ton beras per tahun dan telah didukung oleh inisiatif Mutual Recognition Arrangement on Organic Agriculture Products (MRA-OAP) dari program EU-ASEAN ARISE+. Ini memberikan kredibilitas kepada produsen yang memenuhi syarat seperti Ahmad dan GATOS.
