Democratising data for more inclusive governance to strengthen conservation in the Mekong Basin
From 14-16 March 2023, the Sustainable Infrastructure Partnership, which aims to promote the stability, peace, prosperity, and sustainable development of the Mekong sub-region, hosted the Mekong Research Symposium in Chiang Rai, Thailand. The event brought together researchers, civil society organisations (CSOs), donors, and international non-governmental organisations to share research, tools, and strategies to better understand the current state of the Mekong and discuss opportunities to increase the availability and accessibility of data for use by local communities, CSOs and decision-makers.
