The World Bank has emphasized the need for a deliberate approach in addressing climate change issues through an improving public environmental awareness and reportage on National Climate Accounting (NCA).
In a two day training on Natural Capital Accounting and Sustainability reporting, 17 journalists participated and equipped with the requisite knowledge of enhancing media capacity to effectively communicate the economic and policy implications of natural capital accounting in Nigeria.
The training is a broader initiative that will introduce key natural capital accounting concepts and the role of journalism in promoting environmental accountability and public awareness.
Environmental Specialist, World Bank, Ahmed Abdullahi, explained that NCA is a framework designed to measure a country’s natural assets to better understand their value and role in sustainable development.
Abdullahi highlighted the challenges in accessing relevant environmental data but expressed optimism about the positive impact of NCA on policy and planning.
He also noted that the training will highlight collaborative efforts between the federal government of Nigeria and the world bank to mainstream NCA into national policy and planning processes as well as promoting the sustainable management of Nigeria natural resources.
In his presentation, Yakeen Akinwale, a veteran journalist and facilitator recognizes the critical role of the media in shaping public discourse and policy action, adding that the training will empowered journalists to frame NCA within national development conversations and encourage broader citizens engagement.
He described solution journalism as a rigorous, evidence-based approach that focused not only on problems but also on how communities will positively respond to those challenges.
The 2 day training workshop is expected to build participants the knowledge of story telling skills of journalism on sustainability change and promote solution based reporting approaches.
Participants will also be exposed to tools methodologies for interpreting and repotting data from natural capital assessment.
