SUMMARY:Workshop
LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION:Climate change poses increasingly complex and multi-dimensional risks to Sarawak’s development trajectory, affecting sectors such as natural resource management, public health, infrastructure, food security, and livelihoods. As Sarawak advances its development aspirations, while simultaneously managing biodiversity, ecosystems, and social equity, the role of institutions in shaping, coordinating, and delivering effective climate action has become critical.
While awareness of climate risks has grown, climate responses often remain fragmented across sectors and levels of governance. Ministries, agencies, academic institutions, and civil society organisations (CSOs) frequently approach climate-related challenges through sector-specific or project-based interventions, resulting in coordination gaps, duplication of efforts, and limited scalability of successful initiatives. Strengthening institutional coherence, policy alignment, and cross-sector collaboration is therefore central to translating climate commitments into tangible outcomes.
In this context, institutional solutions—such as governance frameworks, regulatory instruments, inter-agency coordination mechanisms, data-sharing platforms, and inclusive stakeholder engagement models—are essential enablers of effective climate action. Building a shared understanding of these institutional dimensions among the civil service, academia, and CSOs can help improve policy design, implementation, collaboration and coordination, monitoring, reporting and verification.
This workshop is conceived as a platform to bring together key stakeholders to examine how institutional arrangements in Sarawak can be strengthened to support more integrated, evidence-based, and impactful climate action.
