 Ladies and gentlemen, now allow me to place my humble request to the chairperson of this opening ceremony, Dr. Krishnagarapuram, also the Secretary of the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Environment for the close of remarks. Hello, Secretary. Chair of Education and Fund Board, Mr. Moma, you are one either. I am the DCNF fellow doctor, Shalini Mughap. Distinguished speakers of the dais, Distinguished Invitees, Friends from Median, Ladies and gentlemen, good morning. It is a matter of great pleasure for us to host the 8th Community-Based Education Conference in Kathmandu. On behalf of the organizers, may I take this opportunity to extend our warm welcome to the chairperson of the inaugural ceremony, right on the good prime minister of Nepal, and all the distinguished participants from all over the world. We have traveled long distances to join us in this important event and shared very valuable experiences and lessons learned. I would like to express our sincere gratitude and heartfelt thanks to the chief guest for accepting our invitation and for navigating this intimate event, despite your busy schedule and urgent priorities. Your gracious presence is an evidence of Nepal's commitment to the United Nations Criminal Convention on Climate Change processes, and your valuable address has been inspiring and guiding for us to further commit ourselves to achieve the goal of this conference as well as the United Nations Criminal Convention. I feel very delighted by the presence of best minds working on damages at the patient around the world. For the moment, your valuable witness to Nepal's genocide made this event memorable to all of us. I know some of you suffered this early, nevertheless, you all had accepted it. I thank you all for your cooperation and adapting to the local situation. I take this opportunity to thank all our partners, the BWF here, Practical Action, Salman Ki Geberg, and ID, for hosting the field trip. And also, I put to all the distinguished invitees for a aggressively open session of this conference. I'm confident this conference will be successful in proposing practical and cost-effective adaptation solutions to climate change issues. As rightly mentioned by our chief guest, Honorable Prime Minister, that climate change has become a global problem, and it needs collaborative action to overcome. Although the entire world is collaborating to combat climate change through the United Nations Criminal Convention on Climate Change processes, our efforts are encouraging but not inaccurate. In order to shake your food, water, energy, biodiversity, and human volume, we must further cut down on our gas emissions and invest much more in climate change adaptation at the local level. Distinguished participants, and the Chair of the LBC Group at United Nations Climate Negotiations, Nepal has been sincerely mobilizing its resources and putting its best effort to raise the concern of the most vulnerable LBC and negotiate to benefit all LBCs. Some of the concerns have been addressed, but much is still awaiting us. It is imperative that climate change processes should be instrumental in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and in addressing the urgent need of the LBCs to adapt to changing climate, reduce poverty, and shake your sustainable future. As mentioned by previous speakers, Nepal has initiated necessary policy instruments, such as climate change policy, national adaptation program, action NAPA, National Barrier and Green strategy, and action plans, Red Cross strategy, forestry and agricultural development strategies to support climate actions. Similarly, institutional arrangements have been made to coordinate at various levels. We are also engaged in the implementation of most of the climate's adaptation measures. Some of our successful implementation includes design and dissemination of improved bookstores, rural biogas plants, community-based forestry programs, micro-isle power, water-sales conservation, water resource protection, irrigation, water use permit for ecosystem services, et cetera. I'm happy to share that this office gathering that Nepal's Innocent Reduction Project, IGN, has been endorsed by the 9 million of the carbon-carbon in Brussels all year this month. Carbon-carbon levels have agreed to contract for 14 billion tons of carbon-carbon for Nepal's right-host. That is the judgment. After three days of revisit, you are now aware of the people spread by Nepalese people, all their livelihood, as well as addressing climate change impacts. The most I've also realized, our initiative is preservation of Nepal's Himalayan and mountain ecosystem for the well-being of the people living in the mountains and lowlands in South Asia. Partly communities are among the best managers of national resources, most wide-economist and social architect at most vulnerable to climate change impacts as well. In this context, it is important to note that initiatives such as climate actions and biographies conservation should move and inhabit. I'm sure you have similar or even better reports in your countries and hopeful that the experience you have gained in our Himalayan visit will add value to upcoming sessions of this conference. I'm confident that your active participation during the conference decorations will signal strong message to the international community, to support on community and ecosystem-based adaptations through enhanced finance, technology, and capacity building. Finally, I would like to express my great happiness as Nepal selects support in planning and making this conference happen. At the end, I once again assure our firm commitment to the humanitarian framework and international climate change processes. I wish this conference would be memorable and contribute towards a value, humanity, and the mother earth. I declare the closing of this in a good session. Thank you very much.
