SUMMARY:Urban Ecology - a New Lens on Biodiversity
DESCRIPTION:We’re excited to invite you to the Urban Ecology exhibition\, a collaboration with the IIHS Library and Mihir Kulkarni from the IIHS School of Environment and Sustainability.\nUnderstanding urban ecological dynamics is crucial for developing strategies to mitigate biodiversity loss and promote nature conservation within cities and for improved sustainability. However\, the process of urbanisation intertwines with social and economic factors\, creating complex interactions that demand our attention. Urban ecology addresses these challenges by studying ecology in\, of\, and for the city. Through a series of engaging activities focussed on India\, this quarter’s exhibition is curated to introduce a broader audience to this fascinating area of research. \nThe curated collection of books\, publications and research articles delves into the complex interactions between cities\, nature\, and the social factors that influence them. \nThe exhibition is free and open to all; walk in and enjoy the curation. Don’t miss the dedicated corner showcasing publications from our Small Grants Programme Projects!

SUMMARY:Policy-push towards feasibility of Nature based Solutions for cities ~ by IIHS
DESCRIPTION:Nature-based Solutions are defined by IUCN as – “Actions to protect\, manage and restore natural or modified ecosystems\, which address societal challenges\, effectively and adaptively\, providing human well-being and biodiversity benefits“. \nThis webinar by the School of Environment and Sustainability\, IIHS aims to discuss what policies should be implemented and supported to enable healthier city ecosystems. The webinar will shed light on problems that the city ecosystem faces – nature based solutions that can be implemented to overcome them. \nREGISTER NOW! \nThis webinar is supported by the Agence Francaise de Developpement funded project – “Greening Urban Food Systems – Building sustainable urban agriculture practices in Bengaluru through nature-based solutions”.

SUMMARY:Fostering the Urban Jungle ~ Science Gallery Bengaluru
DESCRIPTION:Can Bengaluru be thought of as an urban jungle? It is a city that has grown from a collection of small hamlets to a metropolis within a short time\, and still continues to expand. Renee Borges will explore the natural delights of Bengaluru\, while highlighting the problems that the city’s biodiversity faces. Her talk will offer solutions for these problems so that this human generation and generations to come may foster the network of interactions that have existed in Bengaluru. \nHer talk will offer solutions for these problems so that we\, as the city’s residents\, may continue to encourage the ecological network of interactions that have existed in Bengaluru. \nREGISTER NOW!

SUMMARY:Optimising Transportation Systems- A network perspective ~ Science Gallery Bengaluru
DESCRIPTION:As drivers weigh between left and right\,\nsqueezing through gaps that are parlous and tight\,\nwho knows which way they’ll go\, or why—\nthere’s more to this than meets the eye. \nAs passengers linger around shelters and bays\,\nhelplessly staring at the traffic’s slow pace\,\nwho knows which bus will pick them up\, or why—\nthere’s more to this than meets the eye \nCan Bengaluru untangle its traffic chaos and build a smarter\, sustainable future?\nWith its ever-growing population and infamous traffic jams\, Bengaluru faces complex transportation challenges. Join Tarun Rambha as he navigates the intricate dynamics of traffic systems driven by the independent actions of millions of commuters. Discover how paradoxes emerge in urban transit\, and explore innovative solutions to ease congestion. Tarun will also examine the public transportation network\, the backbone of sustainable mobility\, and discuss strategies to maximise resources while transitioning to a cleaner\, greener future for the city. \nREGISTER NOW
