Fantastic to be back at @icimod to participate in the Koshi Disaster Risk Reduction Knowledge Hub Annual Dialogue. Looking forward to 2 days of exchanging ideas, knowledge and practices from India, Nepal and China on reducing multi-hazard disaster risks. #kdkh2022 #icimod

For a day or two up in Kasar Devi we were able to get spectacular views of the Nanda Devi Trishul ranges. Uttarakhand is truly special and so beautiful! 2/10
