The concept of a Youth Stocktake was announced at the event to accompany the first Global Stocktake, by conducting an assessment of the advancements and gaps for youth inclusion in the UNFCCC negotiation process. Set to be delivered at COP28, the first Global Stocktake reviews progress towards meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement and is a critical turning point for efforts to address climate change by delivering an ambitious response and to course correct.

The SB58 side event was attended by Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, President-Designate of COP28 UAE; Simon Stiell, Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC; Shamma Al Mazrui, UAE Minister of Community Development and COP28 Youth Climate Champion; Razan Al Mubarak, COP28 High Level Champion, representatives from Parties, the United Nations and youth stakeholders.

COP28 is determined to ensure that youth voices and ambitions are a focal point of the climate process. Through this Youth Stocktake, we will identify the gaps for youth inclusion and build on efforts to enhance access, capacity and resources for young people,” said COP28 President-Designate Dr. Al Jaber. “Within the COP28 team, nearly 70% of our negotiators are under the age of 35. The COP28 Presidency and the Youth Climate Champion are committed to supporting and enabling greater access for youth especially from underrepresented communities through key initiatives such as the International Youth Climate Delegates Program.”

“Meaningful youth engagement in the UNFCCC requires more than attending the conference. We need all voices to be heard. We must continue and enhance our support to young people so that you can meaningfully engage and influence the process, and influence the trajectory for global climate goals and commitments. I hope the Youth Stocktake will improve our understanding of where we are in ensuring youth participation in the process. Something we have all committed to”, said Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC, Simon Stiell.

“Equitable climate action calls for youth to be heard, given access and enabled to contribute to decision-making.

The COP28 International Youth Climate Delegate Program recognizes that youth have a pivotal role to play in the success of COP28 and climate progress,” said COP28 Youth Climate Champion Al Mazrui. “Youth hold the key to our shared future, their passion and innovation ignite change. We are committed to enhancing youth participation within the COP28 Presidency and the COP process, strengthening platforms that advance the youth climate agenda, formalizing their involvement, relaying and amplifying their voices, and empowering them through capacity building.”

“Success is incumbent on authentic inclusivity. Everyone is needed if we are to succeed,” said UN Climate Change High Level Champion for COP28 Ms. Al Mubarak. “We need to deliver for our youth and children by mobilizing support for youth-led solutions and ensuring that the non-state actors and the private sector support capacity-building, skills development and green jobs opportunities.”

During the session, youth leaders highlighted notable milestones of youth inclusion including the establishment of YOUNGO; the annual Conference of Youth which precedes COP and local pre-COP youth conferences, which took place in 80 countries in 2022. Speakers at the event also discussed progress made on the Global Youth Statement, an annual comprehensive set of youth policy proposals agreed to by global youth organizations, paragraph 64 of the COP26 Glasgow Climate Pact, and paragraph 55-57 of the COP27 Sharm el-Sheikh Implementation Plan.

At the event, YOUNGO and youth leaders discussed persistent challenges faced by young people, including the lack of resources and funding for youth climate volunteers; gaps in education and capacity building to understand the complex negotiation topics, a lack of formalized processes for youth policy proposals to be considered by governments, and a disconnect between youth needs in formal negotiation spaces.

Young people called on the UNFCCC to reform international youth policy input processes and establish an accessible catalog of capacity-building content. Based on recommendations at the event, the incoming COP28 Presidency and the Youth Climate Champion agreed to deliver a roadmap and action plan on the road to COP28 to improve UNFCCC youth engagement structures.

First Cohort of the COP28 International Youth Climate Delegate Program Selected

The COP28 Presidency have also selected the first International Youth Climate Delegate Program (International YCDP) cohort of 100 youth delegates, representing the world’s least-developed countries, small island developing states, Indigenous Peoples, and minority groups.

The cohort of delegates include 12 from Indigenous communities and 10 from conflict areas.

The COP28 Youth Climate Champion team and YOUNGO oversee the International YCDP program. Six youth delegates from the International YCDP and three from the UAE Youth Climate Delegate Program participated in the SB58 as party observers.

The program was designed to provide a platform for the needs and policy proposals of youth in global climate decision-making, build climate capacity, knowledge, and networks among youth, and establish a model for equitable youth inclusion in all future COPs.

Leading up to COP28, youth delegates will be involved in capacity-building sessions, follow the UNFCCC negotiation process closely throughout the year, gather inputs from their home countries to build a youth-centered strategic plan for COP28, and participate in key climate events.

MyyShop stages numerous budding women entrepreneurs

“We have to face the severe situation that there are still high barriers for women to gain knowledge,” said Diane during the forum, drawing participants’ attention to a survey carried out last year by the APEC Business Advisory Council in which 63% of women respondents from MSMEs reported a lack of professional skills while more than 50% expressed a strong need for training in digital tools. “All parties are in action, but I would like to reiterate to strengthen multilateral cooperation in the digital capability building for women, help women to access digital skills in a practical way to realize entrepreneurship,” she added.

To lower the barriers for women to participate in e-commerce to an absolute minimum and provide a powerful digital tool for young women entrepreneurs to grow their social commerce business, DHGATE launched MyyShop in 2020 as a pioneering social commerce platform. MyyShop provides digitalization tools and step-by-step support to empower creators, influencers, and individual entrepreneurs with social influence to effortlessly monetize their influence on social platforms. Put simply, users can “Share to Earn” by selling through shoppable feeds or leveraging influencer marketing on social platforms.  

Diane shared the story of Sonya, a Russian woman’s story to allow participants to have a full picture of how MyyShop works to help women stand on their own feet. Sonya is an international student studying in China. She once modeled part-time but gave that up when COVID-19 hit. Fortunately, she started to learn e-commerce knowledge and skills on MyyShop and tried to recommend wigs to her followers, which were shipped by MyyShop suppliers. Now, her monthly revenue is above USD 400,000, which not only allows her to pay her tuition fees but also allows her to partly support her family.

“This is a touching story that makes us believe that if we provide training to women and connect them with resources, they can better participate in the digital economy and make themselves better off. “

For women entrepreneurs, MyyShop addresses complex supply chain challenges in cross-border e-commerce using innovative technology and services. This enables women to leverage their strengths and actively participate in the digital economy with equal opportunities.

“We should strive to harness and utilize the latest technology. I look forward to seeing more women-led entrepreneurial enterprises effectively leverage the power of social networks and new technologies,” said Diane, pointing out the infinite potential of digital transformation.

A new women empowerment community to come

Diane appealed for different organizations among BRICS countries to cooperate with and promote outstanding women role models to inspire more women worldwide, foster an environment of public opinion that supports women entrepreneurs, and let women see the limitless potential of the digital economy.

To encourage the global women community to stand up, raise their voices, and break old stereotypes, Diane is in the process of establishing an international women empowerment community. “The road for women to form and grow a business is long and difficult,” said Diane, who founded DHGATE in 2004.

“If someone can guide budding entrepreneurs as mentors, allowing them to learn from their valuable experience, such women are more likely to succeed,” she added. This community will serve as a platform for women to support each other, giving them the opportunity to learn new skills, acquire new resources, realize their potential faster and better, and let the world see “Her Power”.

This new community initiative follows the APEC Women Connect platform initiated by Diane in 2016. As an APEC-endorsed program, the platform aims to empower women, especially young women, to realize entrepreneurship through digital solutions, including inspirational sharing, practical learning, effective recognition, and awards.

“We will continue to persist with this project and continuously expand its influence to drive and assist more women entrepreneurs,” said Diane.

During the 2023 BRICS Women’s Leadership Forum, the BRICS Women’s Development Report for 2023 was also published to provide an overview of the current state and progress of women’s development in these countries.

Experts Emphasize the Crucial Role of Technology, Open Data, and Public Participation in Combating Corruption

BANGKOK, June 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The use of Blockchain and other technological advances, open data, people participation, and cooperation from the public, private and academic sectors are all important tools to ensure the strategic plan of the National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) reaches its targets, according to experts speaking at a forum about “Open Government: Game Changer in Fight against Corruption”.

Mr Niwatchai Kasemmongkol, Secretary General of Thailand’s National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) is seen here delivering the keynote speech at a forum about “Open Government: Game Changer in Fight against Corruption”, co-hosted by the NACC and local television channel PPTV HD 36 on May 25th 2023 in Bangkok.
Mr Niwatchai Kasemmongkol, Secretary General of Thailand’s National Anti-Corruption Commission (NACC) is seen here delivering the keynote speech at a forum about “Open Government: Game Changer in Fight against Corruption”, co-hosted by the NACC and local television channel PPTV HD 36 on May 25th 2023 in Bangkok.

The forum, held on May 25th in Bangkok, was co-hosted by the NACC and local television channel PPTV HD 36. The forum was held to promote increasing public disclosure of information and to raise the level of transparency in order to strengthen confidence in the Thai economy.

“Making information easier for the public to access will help citizens to be treated fairly when receiving services from the government,” Mr Niwatchai Kasemmongkol, Secretary General of the NACC, said in his keynote speech. “Open data can ensure transparency in the procurement process and allow people to check. Everyone is able to inspect government officials.”

During the panel discussion that followed the opening speech, Dr. Chadchart Sittipunt, Governor of Bangkok, said the focus of his Open Bangkok policy is Open data, the disclosure of information.

“Important information must be disclosed, published information is like a flashlight that lets us see in the dark, and that information must be measurable,” Dr. Chadchart said. “Technology in terms of storing data in the same format, reading data, processing data and having a dashboard will make everything easier. Open data is about building trust, building faith, which is the most valuable thing in creating a transparent state.”

He cited as an example the use of “Traffy Fondue”, a problem management platform established by Thai researchers to ensure citizen engagement in reporting and monitoring problems affecting the operations and services of agencies such as municipal offices, thereby preventing misconducts, and increasing transparency.

“We need cooperation from every part of the four threads that join together: government, people, private sector and academic sector. strengthening society against corruption and transparency.”

“Disclosure is critical to success,” said Associate Professor Tortrakul Yomnak, member of the board of the Foundation for Public Policy and Good Governance. “Once the information is open, the public will be able to access it.”

“In order to solve the corruption problem, cooperation from all sectors is required, the NACC cannot solve the problem alone,” said Associate Professor Dr. Anusorn Tamajai, Chairman of the Pridi Banomyong Institute. “Technological advances, the trend towards direct democracy, and participatory management will bring about radically changed transparency because they will allow auditing of the government.”

The blockchain technology must be embraced in order to reform the way various transactions take place, as such new technologies can help tackle corruption, Dr. Anusorn added.

According to Mr. Kitti Tangjitrmaneesakda, Vice Chairman of The Federation of Thai Industries, it is clearly visible is that petty corruption can be reduced with the use of technology and that social media plays a role as everyone can be a detective and highlight issues of misconduct.

However, Mr. Kitti added that regulatory reforms are also required in some areas.

“Law enforcement reforms are required, the need for licenses, and processes that give discretionary authority to officials must be reduced,” Mr. Kitti said.  “People must work together to make this happen. The private sector, which has publicly stated its policy as an anti-corruption organization has to take it seriously. We should all have a duty to help each other.”

Big Data Expo 2023: Merging Digital Technology with Culture

GUIYANG, China, May 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A news report by Huanqiu.com:

The much-awaited Big Data Expo 2023, taking place from May 26th to 28th in Guiyang, presents an array of groundbreaking technological accomplishments that are redefining the nexus of culture and technology. As digital technology such as big data, cloud computing, and AI evolve at a rapid pace, they are propelling the cultural sector into a new era of creativity and distribution, thus sparking a wealth of opportunities for cultural expansion.

Technologies that provide immersive experiences, such as xR and holographic projections, are not only transforming the way cultural products are consumed, but also how they are produced. Shenzhen Absen Optoelectronic, a leading LED display manufacturer, showcases its top-of-the-line products and innovative solutions at the Expo, enabling visitors to experience captivating visuals firsthand.

A major highlight at Absen’s booth is the virtual shooting stage, which primarily employs LED display screens from Absen to produce predefined visuals, creating distinctive settings. As visitors step onto the stage, they are transported into the scene through high-tech processing, thus experiencing an immersive sensory spectacle.

Absen’s virtual stage utilizes “xR” virtual shooting as the technical support to deliver an immersive experience to the audience. xR refers to extended reality, which encompasses VR (virtual reality), AR (augmented reality), and MR (mixed reality). This technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in several fields, including advertising, film production, and live commerce. One notable application is the virtual shooting studio, where LED screens and virtual shooting technology merge to digitally replicate specific “scenes”. This allows actors to perform directly within an AR virtual environment, leading to significant savings in production time and cost.

Discussing the rationale for venturing into xR virtual shooting, a director of Absen stated, “xR offers a gateway to the metaverse, integrating a wide variety of virtual realities. It represents a groundbreaking technology in the film and television sector, enhancing overall industry shooting efficiency and fostering growth. Given its enormous potential, xR will also link the industry to others, including education, smart manufacturing, and energy supply. Undoubtedly, this signifies a forthcoming trend in the display industry’s evolution.”

In addition to the innovation generated by its virtual shooting technology, Absen has also been enriching the novel experience of digital culture in culture-themed tourism. For instance, Absen has played a vital role in the construction of themed attractions in the core area of Universal Beijing Resort. It creates a multi-dimensional, all sensory immersive experience with the advanced LED display technology. The Performing Arts Center of Guiyang Grand Theatre benefits from stages adorned with movable LED screens and a four-sided rotating stage, offering viewers a spectacular visual treat. Furthermore, Absen has influenced the exhibition industry, particularly in the Sci-Tech Cultural Center of Wannian County of Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province. Here, Absen’s immersive digital sand table (CAVE) and large-scale data visualization smart screen have turned the center into a new science, technology, and culture landmark. The director of Absen said, “We aim to use LED display technology to revolutionize content, models, and business modes, crafting immersive cultural attractions and continually enhancing visitors’ audio-visual experience.”

In the digital era, technological advancements and content drive the cultural industry’s evolution. Consequently, the demand for intellectual property protection is becoming more urgent.

At the Expo, Intellectual Property Publishing House presents the China IPR Big Data and Intelligent Service System (Inspiro). The publishing house director explained, “We have collected 491 pools of data, reaching a capacity of 383T+ and an amount of 1 billion+. Inspiro integrates data resources, including domestic and foreign patents, trademarks, intellectual property cases and standards, scientific journals, geographical indications, new plant varieties, and layout-designs of integrated circuit. Inspiro performs multiple functions, such as information retrieval, analysis, early warnings, and project management in big data.”

Using interactive data visualization and data monitoring and analysis, Inspiro communicates complex data relationships and data-driven insights in an easily digestible manner.

The director further noted, “The publishing house is tasked with overseeing intellectual property throughout its lifecycle. From the moment books, paintings, or other works are created, we manage the verification of their originality and intellectual property protection, realization, and infringement.”

Cultural digitization is now a national strategy. In Guizhou, digitization enriches public cultural services, meeting diverse needs. Libraries are enhancing the reading experience through technologies such as robot guides, digital resources, and virtual reality. Cultural venues like museums, connected to the “cloud,” provide audiences with new and immersive experiences through cloud performances and exhibitions. The “Travel Guizhou with One Code” app, which compiles information on Guizhou’s tourist attractions, enables a seamless, smart tourism experience. The data-driven evolution of the cultural industry is yielding benefits for more people.

Guided by the vision of “Display A Better Future For All”, TCL CSOT showcases its expertise and capacity in providing complete display technology solutions across a range of sizes, categories, and forms – spanning IJP OLED, Mini LED, Micro LED, medical displays, vehicle-mounted displays, light field displays, as well as consumer electronics displays. Among them, six core exhibits include:

  • The world’s first 65-inch 8K ink-jet printing flexible OLED display brings to the industry the largest flexible OLED foldable screen based on ink-jet printing technology to date with the highest resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The screen uses IGZO TFT backplane technology and ultra-high-precision ink-jet printing technology to present a smooth and intricate display of an astounding 33 million pixels per frame. Combining ultra-thin and high-strength flexible module materials, the product has a bending radius of less than R25mm and a bending life of up to 100,000 times.
  • The ultrawide 47.5″ curved pillar-to-pillar display extends continuously about 1.4m-wide from one A-pillar seamlessly to the next. The whole display area is equipped with in-cell touch sensing and can be operated by driver and co-driver simultaneously. With an integrated cluster, central control and passenger entertainment functions built into the 4,200R curved display, its utterly natural design merges stylishly with the interior, creating an immersive and futuristic experience. At 8K, this display boasts the highest resolution in the automotive industry. In addition, an AM Mini LED backlight with more than 3,000 local dimming zones and advanced control algorithms facilitates an improved user experience with increased image contrast and decreased energy consumption.
  • Blurring the line between virtual reality and the real world, the world’s first mass-produced 1,512 PPI Mini LED VR display guarantees an immersive visual feast for gamers, movie-buffs, and the like. With a resolution of 2,280RGB x 2,280 and a pixel density of 1,512 PPI, the 2.1-inch display is currently the LCD screen with the highest pixel density in the world, effectively eliminating any screen-door effect and greatly improving the visual perception of VR products. Thanks to local dimming technology, it can achieve fine partition dimming with a contrast ratio of up to 100,000:1, bringing a more realistic and delicate picture, while a 120Hz refresh rate supports a smoother viewing experience.
  • The 2.1-inch 1,512 PPI LTPO-VR realRGB fast-LCD is TCL CSOT’s latest LTPO VR display module with 4K resolution for both eyes and 1,512 PPI real-RGB. Its ultra-high pixel density further improves the experience of VR products. As the most extreme LCD display module in the industry, it eliminates the screen-door effect and vertigo common in VR systems. The graininess no longer exists, while the 3D image is more vivid and immersive than ever. Utilizing advanced LTPO panel design and flow, this product is enabled by major breakthroughs in transmittance, frame rate, border size, and power consumption.
  • Catering to the growing demand for ultra-wide e-sports screens, the world’s first 57-inch 1,000R 8K high-end curved gaming display delivers a super wide perspective using a unique high-performance HVA screen. Boasting a resolution of DUHD 7,680 x 2,160, 1,000R curvature and 32:9 super wide display ratio, the player can experience a 3D depth of field perception and immersion that engages all senses. At the same time, the high refresh rate of 240Hz and fast response speed of 1ms offer a fluid gaming experience, ushering in a new era for e-sports as the world’s first 8K e-sports-ready monitor with exceptional picture quality.
  • Driven by TCL CSOT’s future-oriented vision, the world’s first ultra-narrow OLED flexible display screen (also the world’s first WQ_LTPO ultra-narrow AMOLED flexible product) presents an extra fine appearance with a four-sided 0.9mm Array Panel frame, a four-sided 1.6mm module frame, a 0.3mm O-cut Array Border and a 0.36mm module border. With 1,920Hz PWM dimming technology and a static frame as low as 1Hz, its overall power consumption is 15-20% lower than conventional products in the industry. Equipped with a 240Hz high touch report rate and TCL CSOT’s latest C7 organic light emitting system, this product provides a more realistic color.
