UN Environment Programme in Asia Pacific

Advancing sustainability in Asia-Pacific by promoting inclusive solutions to environmental issues.

In Asia Pacific, the UN Environment Programme operates through its Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific and works in 41 countries in the region. We work with governments, local authorities, civil society, other UN entities, regional and international institutions, as well as the private sector to develop and implement cleaner and safer policies and strategies that catalyze efficient use of the

region’s natural assets and reduces degradation of the environment and risks to both humans and the environment.

A glowing ghost net, tangled in mangrove roots on the tide-swept shore of Nandgaon village, Maharashtra, near Mumbai 🌊 — that's the winning image of this year's Mangrove Photography Awards, captured by Indian photographer Gaurav Patil.

Shot under 13 seconds of ultraviolet light, the photo tells a quiet but urgent story: discarded fishing nets are washing into mangrove forests and turning these vital coastal guardians into hidden pollution hotspots.

Mangroves are among the most carbon-rich ecosystems on Earth 🌳 — protecting coastlines from storms, nurturing marine life, and locking away carbon that helps fight the climate crisis. Yet they face growing threats from plastic pollution, coastal development, and habitat loss.

This year's awards powered by Mangrove Action Project (MAP) drew over 5,200 entries from 87 countries, with several winning shots from right here in Asia — from the tigers and jungle cats of India's Sundarbans to mudskippers on its tidal flats.

Protecting mangroves means protecting people, wildlife, and our climate future 💚

Did you know up to 40% of the world's land is degraded? This is harming livelihoods, biodiversity, and our climate.

Join the world at the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification's , Mongolia (17–28 August) as leaders, scientists, and communities unite to restore land and restore hope.

🌱 The biodiversity crisis is also a human rights crisis.

Across Asia, environmental human rights defenders protect ecosystems, lands, and territories — often facing shrinking civic space, intimidation, and worse. Their work is central to closing the gap between global biodiversity commitments and action on the ground.

Building on outcomes from the 4th Asia Environmental Human Rights Defenders Forum (Chiang Mai, Oct 2025), which brought together 180+ defenders, Indigenous Peoples, women and youth leaders, and civil society, join this webinar to explore how commitments like the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework can translate into rights-based action — including Indigenous Peoples' rights, land rights, and meaningful participation.

Cutting emissions is only half the story — who benefits, and who's protected, is the other half.

A new UN Environment Programme report finds that countries are turning "just transition" pledges into real laws, court rulings, and institutions — from energy poverty protections in Slovenia to citizen-driven emissions planning in Seoul. 67 countries now reference just transition in their national climate plans.

The takeaway: a fair transition doesn't happen by chance. It's built — through rules that protect workers, communities, and ecosystems while climate action moves forward.

🌱 This is what climate action looks like: a community replanting mangroves to protect their coastline.

Acting could prevent 14.5 million deaths and US$12.5 trillion in economic losses by 2050. 🌍

Every mangrove planted, every early warning system built, every clean energy project scaled — it all adds up.

The signals are clear. What signal will you send? 💚

Hazardous chemicals and waste don't stay contained to landfills or factories — they move through our air, water, soil and food, with real consequences for human health. 🌍

That's the problem The Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm Conventions were built to solve. Since 2013, their secretariats have worked as one — tracking hazardous waste as it crosses borders, requiring prior consent before hazardous chemicals are traded internationally, and phasing out persistent organic pollutants that linger in ecosystems for decades.

Protecting people means controlling what happens to hazardous substances at every stage, from production to disposal.

Scientists warn the world could blow past a key climate target within the next decade. But there's real reason for hope.

A new UNEP report finds that clean technologies — solar, electric vehicles, heat pumps, passive cooling — are approaching tipping points where they become the cheaper, mainstream choice.

In Asia and the Pacific region, that shift is already visible: EV sales are accelerating fast in countries like Vietnam, and passive cooling design (shading, ventilation, reflective materials) could cut urban emissions by up to 25% — a big deal as cooling demand rises across Asia's fast-growing cities.

None of this is guaranteed. It depends on the right policies, investment and public support to keep the momentum going. 🔋☀️

🌍 Half the world's population is under 30 — and young people aren't just inheriting the planet, they're actively shaping its future. From clean tech innovation to community-led restoration, youth around the world are driving real environmental change.

UNEP works with young people through education, policy access, and hands-on platforms to help turn that energy into lasting impact — toward a climate neutral, nature positive, pollution free future. 🌱

🌱 Applications are open to host a Youth Environmental Dialogue (YEDx) in 2026 — a local, youth-led exchange connecting global environmental policy with action on the ground, organized by Children and Youth Major Group to UNEP

Hosting a YEDx helps young people build skills, raise awareness of global frameworks, and channel local voices into decisions that shape their future.

Pollution is quietly costing us more than we realize — in lives, in jobs, in growth.

It's the largest environmental cause of disease and premature death worldwide. But the data tells another story too: preventing pollution can save millions of lives, create new jobs in a circular economy, protect the food we grow, and build fairer societies for those hit hardest.

Prevention isn't a cost — it's an investment. See why: https://www.unep.org/technical-highlight/4-reasons-why-preventing-pollution-good-you-and-your-economy
