کے ذریعے غیر محفوظ ترین تک رسائی CBFEWS (in Urdu)
CBFEWS is an integrated system of tools and plans managed by and for communities. It provides near real-time early warnings when rising flood waters are detected. The warning information is transmitted to caretakers who disseminate the information to the rest of the community, government line agencies, and stakeholders. Although the detection of flood risk and its communication to vulnerable communities are driven by technology, the primary functioning of the CBFEWS lies in a people-centred approach to flood response.

Harmonizing the vegetation classification of Kailash Sacred Landscape - Working paper
This paper is the collective effort of ICIMOD and partners to harmonize the vegetation classification of the Kailash Sacred Landscape. The vegetation map was prepared using field data, satellite data, and inputs from experts and partner institutions in China, India, and Nepal. The map provides information on the geographic extent, area coverage, and species composition of 14 vegetation and six land use-land cover types. The information can be used to enhance decision making for ecosystem management in the landscape. Additionally, the methods used in this study are dynamic and could be easily applied to other landscapes in the Hindu Kush Himalaya.
