Deyanira Cordoba belongs to a family of coffee growers of Tablon de Gomez, in the of Nariño region of Colombia. As part of a UN Women project, she has learned about her economic rights, bodily autonomy and more. The future holds many possibilities for this talented artist and coffee grower, but whichever path she chooses, she feels she belongs with her community, in the mountains of Colombia, watching the coffee grow.
Two years after the historic peace agreement that formally ended five decades of conflict between the Government of Colombia and Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), peace is intimately linked with economic empowerment, justice and decent life. For the coffee-growing women of Tablón de Gómez, life is safer, at last. Now they are working to make their lives better, growing coffee and sowing peace.

Studies have shown that climate change will cause a shift of climatic zones in the ecosystems of Altai-Sayan, resulting in the migration of animals and plants. In response, a buffer zone of about 600,000 hectares of protected forests has been created between the Western and Eastern part of the region to protect the migration routes of globally threatened species, such as the snow leopard, lynx, European red deer, elk, argali, and more.

The tree nursery we funded in the jungle in Sarawak. In Borneo we are working in close collaboration with the community to help them to resist, cope with and reverse the deforestation of their environment.
We do this in a way that promotes long term sustainable development of the community. We also help them to attract and draw great benefits from a controlled, manageable flow of visitors arriving through our responsible travel and ethical tourism partner organisation Adventure Alternative.

IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim has highlighted the Organization’s strong commitment to helping achieve the UN SustainableDevelopment Goals and explained how shipping and ports can play a significant role in helping to create conditions for increased employment, prosperity and stability through the promotion of maritime trade. Mr. Lim was speaking at a seminar as part of celebrations in Veracruz, Mexico (21-22 August) focused on IMO’s World Maritime Day theme for 2017 –"Connecting Ships, Ports and People".
The Secretary-General also discussed IMO measures to reduce harmful emissions from ships, the management of ballast water and goal-based standards. He was hosted by the Secretary of the Navy (SEMAR), Admiral Commander in Chief Vidal Francisco Soberón Sanz, who introduced the strategy and capabilities of the Mexican Maritime Authority.
The seminar was attended by the maritime authorities of Argentina, Chile, Panama and the United States, as well as representatives from the Tokyo Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control, World Maritime University (WMU) in Sweden, the IMO International Maritime Law Institute (IMLI) in Malta, and various national government ministries.
The celebrations also included an opportunity for participants to observe a search and rescue exercise and to visit Mexico’s Naval Academy.

Semakau Landfill is Singapore's only operational landfill. It is used to dispose of the ash from waste incineration as well as non-incinerable waste like construction debris.
Semakau Landfill is located at sea, about 8km from mainland Singapore. The landfill is expected to last 40 years at the current rate of usage, and will become part of Singapore's land-stock in the future when completely filled.
During its construction, efforts were made to conserve biodiversity. As a result, there is a rich variety of flora and fauna on the island. Semakau Landfill was even lauded in New Scientist in April 2007 as the “Garbage of Eden” – a showcase of an environmentally friendly system of waste management.
