Good afternoon. I would like to ask you to have a seat that we can start our afternoon session of day two afternoon special day two, it's or the panel free of today work is called Food insecurity and systematic risk What can we learn from the COVID-19 health crisis to address the multiple impacts of climate change for populations on the move? And I have a pleasure to hand the double floor to our moderator today is Monica Goraci director of the partner for program support immigration manager Monica, please floor sewers Thank you, Dan, and thank you all for coming back to this afternoon session and Welcome also to the colleagues who are joining us online It's a it's a real pleasure for me to moderate this session where we will hear from a diverse and very rich panel about some of the key lessons through the that they learned through the COVID-19 pandemic experience that we Truly believe will be very useful in promoting a systemic approach to address food insecurity and climate change and Strengthen the resilience of migration and displacement affected communities as we have heard in the previous sessions at this IDM so far Resilience building and response will require longer-term development adaptation and disaster risk reduction policies involving whole of government and whole of society interventions the increasingly intense and devastating impacts of Disaster land degradation and water scarcity have made it really critical to Address the impacts of climate change or migration displacement and health and this not in a siloed manner rather in a joint-up fashion together Climate change has direct impacts on food systems and on health such as through impacts on nutrition for instance There's also indirect linkages between climate change and health through reduction in food security overall and This makes it really key to include human mobility and national climate action plans and it also calls for strengthening services and Systems for migrants including for health and nutrition taking measures to keep essential services running after disasters and prioritizing access to sustainable and predictable financial resources for vulnerable countries from IOM's own multi-sectoral Experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic this has been and in some ways continues to be a crisis of global health but also global mobility and socioeconomic development the pandemic has exacerbated existing structural inequalities among countries and within countries hindering respect for and protection for the human rights and social inclusion of migrants and communities affected by migration now the reliance on complex and Interconnected global systems to deliver goods and services has certainly many many benefits But the COVID-19 pandemic has also showed us its negative impact on the resilience of key systems at country level The pandemic has been a pertinent reminder To all of us as to how in connected our lives are today It has reminded us that focusing on preparedness response and recovery from a human mobility perspective is essential and that Starting regular human mobility is important to mitigate the longer term socioeconomic impacts whether these results from pandemic climate change a few food insecurity crisis and most importantly while the COVID-19 pandemic has Exposed the risks of certain groups and and the risk that these face It has also highlighted that migrants are at the frontline of responses and are crucial to recovery Therefore in all our work, it will be important to consider migrants and communities themselves within multi-sectoral mechanisms within monitoring and planning when designing prevention preparedness and response interventions and For any future pandemic and for the food and climate crisis were faced with within today So we have asked our panelists today The to address the following questions How can we overcome critical gaps faced by migrants in the access to health services and proper nourishment? What are the lessons that we can draw from the responses to the COVID-19 crisis? And what are the good practices in the consultations that involve whole of government civil society and communities We would start this panel with Our first speaker miss Omnia El Omrani cop 27 president envoy on youth Miss El Omrani is the first official youth envoy for the cop 27 president and the plastic and reconstructive surgery Resident from Egypt. She has more than seven years of experience in climate change and facilitated over 74 hours of training sessions and workshops in 15 countries across the world and She's a commissioner at the Lancet Chatham House Commission and post-covid population health a youth sounding board member of the EU DG INPA She's an associate at women leaders for plenary Planetary health and a member of the global youth coalition for road safety at UNICEF Youth leaders program. She has attended the last three UN climate change conferences in Katowice in Madrid and in Glasgow So miss this Omrani, you have the floor Yes, first of all, thank you so much for having me in this very important conversation Especially that right now we are less than two weeks away from the climate change conference that is going to take place in short machine in Egypt and For me, I am a I'm the first ever envoy on youth for cop And the past 27 years and this brings in the urgency of addressing The needs and the gaps when it comes to the impact of climate change and how disproportionate it is on Children are the lessons and youth and this is one gap I would like to speak to as a young medical doctor who gets to see on a daily basis the detrimental impacts of climate change on my community ranging from Asma as well as respiratory diseases is the rising levels of air pollution to malnutrition because of the increasing Incidences and rates of food insecurity and water insecurity, especially in my own country I'm as well as the mental health impacts of climate change on the younger generation who see who see their health future and prosperity endangered by the effect of the climate crisis and When it comes to specifically think about climate mobility and how the changing temperature and effects on crops as well as the extreme weather events that have led to the death and injuries of many and This is how I personally started my journey in climate change when I witnessed Hurricane Irma and my internship Doing emergency medicine in Florida and I saw how such an extreme weather event that had led to my own Evacuation of my home because of the hurricane to witness things in the hospital the needs and the Rate the increasing rate of patients coming in with acute injuries with the stress because of this weather event And if we go on a greater scale looking at how Climate change has led to the migration of over 50 million Children and youth being forced from their own countries migrating across borders and This is because of the extreme weather events that we are seeing and if a child is born in 2020 According to a very recent study compared to a person who was born in 1960 They are going to witness two to seven Times the rate of climate-driven extreme weather events and right now over five hundred million youth Are living in areas with a very high risk of flooding and nearly 160 million live in areas of extreme or high risk of drought and this brings us to my next point around What can we learn from the COVID-19 response? We have seen countries take urgent and serious steps because of COVID-19 the health crisis of 2020 and climate change is no different Climate change is the biggest global health threat of the 21st century as As it has been said by the Lancet back in 2015 and seven years later We do not see the same urgency We still see in other put climate commitments and Sages made every year at the global climate forum and this year as as a representative of the COP 27 presidency We want to change that we do not want to Discuss commitments. We want to move from pledges into implementation mechanisms And this brings me to the third point in regards to how can we effectively address the climate crisis and the climate Climate mobility emergency to do that We need the voices of the most impacted Communities the ones that are displaced Especially the youth population a because we are disproportionately affected be because we have the agency We have the solutions and we want to be seen and integrated and mainstream into with the Consultations and the planning and the preparedness as equal and natural partners We want to be we want the decision-making spaces either at COP or at global climate forum Like the one that we are today to be reoriented and to be used Sensitive and youth responsive to the needs that young people see at the forefront of the climate crises that are happening Around the world and that is why at COP this year We are going to have the conference of youth taking place from the second to the fourth of November That will build the capacity of young people to engage in climate change or climate mobility Discussion but at the same time produce the global youth statement Which is the universal youth input to this year's COP as well as the country's positions and plans as they move on from COP I'm also happy to announce that we have a platform called the youth COP platform That is showcasing the solutions that are being led by you Targeting all the different impacts of climate change to demonstrate that as young people We have our demands and our voices that we want to be we want them to be integrated In the planning for the protection of those at the forefront and those who are on the move But at the same time we want for support We want to add our allies in the solutions and the actions that we are taking place on the local level Serving our communities that are vulnerable, but at the same time our our calls to action at the global level To policymakers across the world as youth and as a vulnerable population in a broader format We have our own unique perspectives that we would like to see them integrated in a way to drive the same urgency To drive the same lessons we have learned from COVID-19 into the climate mobility planning and implementation Thank you so much. I'm looking forward to the bananat intervention Thank you very much Omnia for these these words and for sharing your personal experiences on the interlinkages between climate change and health and also for raising attention to the staggering numbers of people living in high-risk areas I think it is also very important and I think everybody is in the room and and online has Heard your call to action to move from pledges to Implementation mechanisms as well as your call to include the voice of affected communities But in particular of youth as an important actor an actor that brings solutions at that needs to be heard as I mentioned in my in my introductory remarks we We have learned in the in the COVID pandemic response that we need to include migrants and we need to include All different categories affected people youth everybody who can bring a solution And and so we we take note also on your youth cap platform I think it will be a very relevant platform and I encourage everybody to Have a look at the platform and see how to engage youth So thank you very much again for your contribution I will come back at the end of the panel with a question for you when we will close the session. So please stay with us Our next panelist will be dr. Luz de reguil head of the unit on Multisacra action and food system from the World Health Organization Dr. de reguil is the head of the unit of this multisacra action unit She supports governments to Protect them she has 20 years of experience working in global nutrition and health and more than 130 scientific and policy publications She has served as a speaker and public health advisor to UN agencies governments and global organizations And she frequently volunteers as a boat members of local and international non-profit entities Dr. de reguil your floor is yours Thank you very much. I know that we will have a panel a Later, but I wanted to to share a our learnings from in the past in the past years And I know that you have been extents extensively discussing over the last a Days a the effects of food insecurity for example So I hope that my points would not repeat what you have already discussed, but I wanted to share that in We need to have urgent action to improve our food systems I would say that a The last years have showed us a couple of things That our food systems are not able to provide healthy diets for all populations That our food systems are vulnerable to multiple shocks and That our folks food systems are draining a planetary resources there in an unsustainable way And everyone is affected including a moving populations I would think that a in many ways a food systems a migration have similar drivers climate change economic drivers conflict poverty and inequality and climate change particularly in I mean as we have discussed a is a arch is changing a shifting patterns of mobility in And it has effects on humans a health in directly a Because people are moving as a result of this crisis and indirectly because food insecurity and other problems are increasing And the health of refugees is being affected the recent a report of health and migration a published by W. Chum and shows that a Food insecurity is highly prevalent among refugees and migrants and coffee a aggravated the situation refugees and migrants are adopting a copying strategies that include Escaping meals borrowing money for food or changing their eating patterns to be able to survive That malnutrition and anemia was highly prevalent a our recent Sophie report a produced by the five unit UN agencies working in nutrition Showed that between and last in the last years a After COVID up here more than 150 million people are a Suffer hunger That's a dramatic numbers. We are going back to Numbers that we saw a couple of decades ago in 193 million people are experienced acute food insecurity and we know that the hotspots are in Sub-Saharan Africa We also know that food insecurity is not the only problem our diets in general when when our Healthy diets are unaffordable. They are full quality and that is leading to an increase of obesity and overweight a Immigrant populations are popular a moving populations are not a they are they They are not a Excluded from that double burden of malnutrition. We know that they suffer food insecurity But many of them as part of the report a Have a non-communicable diseases that and the burden is increasing among refugee and migrant populations A often linked to longer residents in cost in the host country and particularly in high and middle-income countries A refugees and migrants may experience issues related to underweight and weight loss but at the same time a they may as they a Come to the new country. They have an increasing increasing risk of a high Body mass mass index overweight obesity and also they suffer from diabetes may lead to some hypertension usually the response of unhealthy diets and changing behavioral patterns access to inadequate diets and because they don't seek a Health a care they often have the worst prognosis So migrants are moving populations are carrying the double burden of malnutrition and disease But also how they are having poor outcomes so We know that our food systems are Vulnerable to shocks. I mean, of course, they are affected. They are able to they are not able to provide on health a healthy diets However, and we know that they often are vulnerable to shocks in COVID-19 that's the purpose of this session But also Ukraine's work have affected our systems and also crime at extremes are also affecting our systems so I mean, I will defer to you a madam chair over you want to discuss this now or we pass to other panelists, but I would say that a We need to ensure that our food systems are able to deliver healthy food That we take into account sustainability Because the agricultural systems are the ones that are contributing it to large amounts of gas emissions in the world and climate change Or are an internal been affected by climate change and of course the dependency of some countries have a Chain effects on the food security worldwide. I know that we are going to probably discuss solutions later So I will stop here unless you ask me to elaborate a little bit on some solutions that all we chose is to improve the food environments Thank you very much. Dr. There again, it will indeed be important to adopt multi-sectoral actions to promote resilience in in food systems, especially to serve migrants and displaced populations and Thank you for highlighting also the vulnerability Of migrants and the need for migrants to have access to health systems, which they often Don't so this is a call that we're happy to join. We look forward to continuing strong collaboration with WHO at the global and country level for promoting health of Migrants and ensuring that human mobility is fully addressed in future pandemic preparedness and response. I Would like now to turn to our third speaker miss Verena Knows global lead migration and displacement at UNICEF Verena has been driving UNICEF's policy programs and partnerships focused on migrant refugees and internally displaced children Prior to this role Verena worked at UNICEF's EU office in Brussels as senior policy advisor She also headed the Turkey office of the European stability initiative, which is an independent Policy policy think tank. She helped co-found in 1999 Verena Knows. We're looking forward to hearing your remarks Thank you so much Monica and thank you colleagues in the room and online It's it's a real pleasure to be to be connected. I have to apologize I got a picked up a call from my little daughter So I may be sounding a bit coarse, but I'm hoping that I can still contribute to today's discussion It's also been great to come after to to accident speakers who already touched on 80 importance of youth Being at the table and continuing to drive our climate and migration discussions And they're now listening to dr. Derigil about the particular impact of food and how food mobility and Preparedness all interlink What I thought I can maybe bring to today's discussion is to share a very brief story that has three parts First I want to introduce you to Elena and Marcela's second I want to share one key lesson that We lost you seems that Miss Verena's Verena kind of this connection has gone down unfortunately Can we try to reconnect? or we move to the to the next speaker and Wait for miss Knows to Resolve Shall we do that? Yes Okay, so we'll move to our fourth speaker waiting for miss Knows to reconnect So we will hear from three Harry Govind youth advisor to children cities and climate action lab London school of hygiene and tropical medicine and steering committee member at Haifa City Harry Govind is a doctor from India He currently works as a climate health fellow for the global consortium of climate and health education Mylman school of public health columbia university He has an active role in different organizations including as a youth advisor to children cities and climate action lab at the london school of hygiene and tropical medicine And integration and protection lead in the migration working group at the un major group for children and youth His main interests include public health and climate change as he hopes to work on breaking the silos that exists between them So we look forward to hearing from you on on how you want to do that Please mr. Govind you have the floor Greetings everyone and thank you to iom and the moderator for this opportunity to be a speaker in this panel for this important discussion My name is dr. Sree harry govind and Representing the migration youth and children platform Which is the main global facilitator for youth engagement at the gcm and mandated at the gfmd First i would like to start by highlighting the effective preparedness Prevention and response requires a migrant inclusive policy By including migrants in national plants including socioeconomic response plans policies and strategies gaps in health and other inequities such as access to education and information Training and decent work will be diminished while we strengthen our efforts towards achieving stg's Food insecurity while being both a driver and a consequence of migration is also common during migration when people are on the move with human mobility And particularly forced displacement on the rise we are on the brink of a hunger pandemic With 8.9 percent of the world's population food insecure There are currently more than a billion people affected by nutritional inadequacies That is a billion people with the potential to be on the move Where one in three migrants being under the age of 30 there must be specific attention towards aid sensitive migrant policy COVID-19 has revealed the vulnerability of people on the move and shown us critical gaps in the access of young migrants To health services and proper nourishment And parallels can be drawn for any climate disaster or event that occurs with the COVID-19 health crisis For the first example, I would like to bring to light the impact of school closures on migrant children Often living in proper poverty Many migrant children depend on school lunches and other services being provided at schools These school lunches go a long way in ensuring required nourishment for growing children In the event of COVID-19 many children around the world Who depend on this form of nutrition went without leading to double or triple burdens of negative health impacts Additionally critical services such as health screenings referrals and feeding programs which happen in schools Are essential in realizing universal health preparedness and need to be maintained And in the event of closure We need to make available replacement services to all children Regardless of their status and inform migrant communities in a timely manner of all the changes that are made So we don't leave this vulnerable population behind Additionally migrant children and youth especially when unaccompanied face specific risks during a crisis To mitigate risks any preparedness prevention and response measure To COVID-19 or climate induced crisis must uphold the principle of best interests of child regardless of the American status These include ensuring universal access to health and other essential services Including mental health and psychosocial support menstrual health services and gender-based violence services As an example in early 2021 India faced the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic Which led to an alarming rise in COVID-19 cases and related deaths The mass grief resulting from the loss in death has had widespread immediate and long-term impacts on mental health Across the age spectrum this proportionately affecting the younger population Essential mental health services such as psychotherapy and clinical hypnotherapy sessions Usually done in person have been affected since the onset of the pandemic This scenario has laid the foundation for the delivery of mental health services via telehealth Which often has resulted in poor rapport between the therapist and the patient problems with diagnosis and lack of empathy I was part of a pilot study to determine the extent of accessibility and ethnicities To mental health health plans among young people across India for which 40 percent of the 1172 participants were migrants With mental health being low priority in health planning local and national level the majority of participants reported lack of confidence in online mental health services We need to identify ways forward as international multilateral organizations as governments And as civil society to overcome the barrier of access and reliability of online telemedical health services As the need for psychosocial support is going to be ever on the rise Another gap is the availability of unavailability of wash services Migrant children have scarce access to wash facilities, especially in the event of crisis Wash facilities must be available for young people If not available, it needs to be communicated clearly, especially in a language understood by children and young people We need to incorporate hygiene information into curriculum and educational strategies for children and young migrants compounded with these factors and food insecurity Recently being exacerbated by climate change and a host of unsavory international policies that have led to the loss of diversity in our food in terms of nutritional value Has a detrimental cascading effect to an individual health and well-being And this is compounded by multitudes of socioeconomic and cultural factors for a migrant Bearing the brunt of this would be the most vulnerable of these communities. That is the youth and children on the move Food insecurity for migration Before, after and on the move, along with other critical gaps, is often seen in the context of international development, in the context of development assistance and humanitarian aid Although important, it cannot be seen as the sole response in this day and age Countries must translate commitments and plans into strong actions and financing whereby they invest in local food production and diversify seed use to enable food systems to become climate resilient and crisis resilient To ensure these actions and financing are effectively implemented Countries must implement well-designed and inclusive migration frameworks and policies We see migrants as core members of the community empower and engage migrants in health care planning and designing interventions and strengthen their inclusion and integration into existing health care and social protection systems and policies With financial risk protection for young migrants accessing these services and ensuring child protection services essential in all recovery policies and plans In the global or national policy forum, whether it be for climate change or DRR or food systems or migration The silos that exist between sectors and ministries are often given as an excuse for inefficient work done to address major issues As a young person, I find this unacceptable I would like to reiterate silos between sectors and stakeholders across ministries in the government level Is an insufficient excuse to not address this existential issue In an interconnected world to effectively address the impact of climate change food insecurity and displacement We require a whole of society and a whole of government approach Working across sectors and stakeholders with an importance to young people The engagement of young migrants themselves as key stakeholders in the community and at the decision-making table Is vital for the sustainability of national plants and policy Thank you Thank you very much. Mr. Govind for these for these words and It's for reiterating the need to include migration in national climate action plan, but also for highlighting the the mental health needs and the vulnerability to mental health that stemmed from from the from the pandemic and And the need to really overcome the barriers to access to mental health you mentioned Language and and and and cultural needs and it's important that we have culture sensitive services that allow Migrants and youth to access the the services and also for for closing Your remarks with with the need for a whole of government approach and and for the fact that it's no excuse to non-action and and it is important that that actually The governments and the society come together and address the the impacts of of You know the the the need for for integration and action on migration governance It's only by having a whole of government approach that we can effectively address Migration governance and migration management. I'm wondering whether Verena Knous is back online Hey, I'm Monica. Ah, you are okay. Okay, then go ahead Thank you so much and apologies earlier I'm currently in Kosovo and as many places in the world. It seems internet and electricity isn't stable So apologies in advance and kids that disappear But I have no regrets because there are such great panelists already here that maybe my marginal additional contribution can be picked up by Mr. Govind by Derrigil or by others who already spoke earlier I'm very briefly. Let me try to walk you through what I wanted to share today I wanted to introduce you to seven year old Elena who has been driven from her role home in Bangladesh Which is one of so many farming communities that are getting devastated by droughts at the ever more frequent cyclones And her family moved like so many others before her to Dakar where she now lives in the urban slums But struggling to make ends meet She actually had to leave school just having started it to help the family earn an income Elena's family has joined the nearly 400,000 low-income migrants who arrive in Dakar each year A silent but steady exodus of climate migrants who are leaving different parts of the country In in effect, it's estimated that close to 70 percent of Dakar slum dwellers have fled some type of environmental hazard Today Elena lives in closed quarters without adequate water and sanitation systems Diseases spread quickly as has covered in her community There is no public health clinic a reality that she shares with almost 93 percent of other slum residents For Elena and her family the climate crisis is no abstract future scenario. It is her lived reality today And for her and for millions of girls like her Investing in climate resilient critical child services, whether these are schools or water systems or social protection systems That also include migrants themselves is actually a matter of life and death Meanwhile far away from her reality. I want to introduce you to marcilas Marcilas is a teenager in Ethiopia Who has suffered together with his family of four consecutive seasons of poor rainfall Sharp increases in food prices and most recently the impact of conflicts Marcilas own community has been ravaged by conflict in Ethiopia itself But also by the war unfolding far away in Ukraine Which is disrupting the global food supply chains and making an already dire hunger crisis in the Horn of Africa worse It's almost ironic. I would like to say that marcilas's name actually means tasting honey There isn't much honey to taste in his life today Earlier this month around 8.5 million people in the Horn of Africa Including 4.2 million children were facing severe water shortages And as we speak close to 20 million depends on immediate food assistance In search of survival and seeing no future where he is today Marcilas is planning to follow his cousins On the dangerous track north through Sudan and Egypt in the hope of surviving and supporting his family The choice he's facing is either to move irregularly And at great risk or to move safely But in the absence of pathways available to young migrants like him boys like him Those already impacted by the impacts of climate there actually is no choice Alina and marcilas show us how climate change health and human mobility are already intricately linked In their young lives They have been impacted by all three Now, how do we untangle this? What do we blame first? Is it the climate crisis? Is it fragility or poverty? Whatever angle we want to take as we look at what actually makes their life hard What is very clear is that mobility whether it is being forced to move or choosing to leave Is already part of alenas and marcilas adaptation and coping strategy The choice we have is how do we manage and plan for a future where climate mobility will become ever more important Now, what is the lesson that we should have learned from covet as we're thinking and preparing for a future Wherever more children will be uprooted in a changing climate like covet Climate change is a global emergency But also and we heard this before Like covet it is hitting different communities and different groups within those communities Very differently. It doesn't feel the same for everyone It certainly doesn't feel the same for me or for my children as it does for children in darker slums Or in the horn of africa The most vulnerable with the least coping capacities children and already fragile communities Are already being hit the hardest We know that children are disproportionately impacted by climate shocks Omran has said it before one billion children are at extremely high risk to the impacts of climate change today This includes 820 million children Exposed to heat waves and their impacts Or close to 400 million children living in high risk areas devastated by cyclones every year and every year and every year Wonderful and beautiful places like antigua barbuda or honduras Where life at school is almost becoming the minority of the months because most of the months or many months a year Schools are closed due to the impacts of cyclones Compared with adults. We also know that children Are physically more vulnerable to the direct and the indirect impacts of climate change And the environmental hazards that also dr. The regi has spoken about Many children like alena who are now crammed into close living quarters in urban slums Or crammed into rural communities where food is becoming ever more scarce They are much more likely to suffer from infectious or waterborne diseases diarrhea Old old diarrhea Continues to be the second leading cause of death And the leading cause of my nutrition for children under five It almost seems unthinkable that in the 21st century. We haven't been able to really get a handle on this Also every time every day every second the number of children suffering from severe wasting Is increasing at a scale that is almost unimaginable In the 15 worst affected countries every single minute and I think I've spoken maybe for six minutes now One additional child is suffering from severe wasting. So that's by now seven more children whose long-term prospects Will forever be affected by what that child is experiencing today And in addition to those physical health risks We've already heard of the incredible impact on the mental health of children And the scarcity of adequate services in languages In formats in ways that are accessible to those already uprooted But we also know that it isn't just children who are suffering this proportionately It is also particular places where climate shocks fragility Conflict and displacement are all concentrating to create a lethal and a potent mix We know that there are 33 countries according to unicef's own child and children climate risk index Where these effects all come together in a lethal combination Of those 29 So almost all those countries are also fragile And it is no surprise that at the peak of the covid crisis 95 of new conflict related displacements recorded worldwide Actually happened in the same countries that are also vulnerable to the impacts of climate change I would like to share how Timothy a 14-year-old boy living in fiji has described the reality He lives through every day every day every every month The seam is swallowing villages eating away at shorelines withering our crops Relocating people cries of loved ones dying of hunger and thirst It's catastrophic It's sad but it's real And what Timothy describes is the reality for millions of children Last year 10 million children were internally displaced because of weather related events only now Looking into the future. What does that mean for us? And what are these lessons and how do we apply them? And I couldn't agree more with what had been said earlier That it's no longer about pledges. It is really about action So at the moment, we are actually facing a future where we see more and more children being displaced and uprooted because of climate And as a way of adapting to the realities of climate Migration is just one of many but a really important and critical coping mechanism and adaptation strategy Especially for children and young people But our migration laws and the policy frameworks that we have in place Including the most recent ones the global migration compacts or the global refugee compacts They have not really kept pace with the changing demands of a changing climate They are not yet fit for receiving protecting or realizing the rights of environmental migrants There is really still unfortunately a lack of a robust policy framework that addresses those needs of children On the move in the context of the climate But the good news is and here Monica, I want to share some optimism because we've been hearing a lot About the challenges and the crises and the dilemmas facing us The good news is we can actually prepare for what we know is coming The future that is happening is already happening today So we can learn from what is happening in Dhaka in Fiji in Antigua Barbados and in our communities all around And we have also been learning through covid That anticipatory action shouldn't be just a nice buzzword that we throw around in Geneva as we meet and talk and plan It is actually critical. It is life-saving. So how do we prepare for this epidemic the next climate impact? That is already happening and unfolding. We can map identify and prepare For where children and young people will be moving from and where they will be moving to And that is exactly what also UNICEF we've been trying to do and we are very excited To soon be shape be able to share with you An attempt on our end just to look and learn from the last five years Understanding where climate impacts and child displacements have intersected and to see what we could possibly predict Of where children will be moving from and will be displaced from due to climate in the next five years And then we want to engage with all the partners here today to help us refine the model and the conclusions But more excitingly, we've also been working together with iom and with young people and with practitioners around the world to think really hard What can we bring? What can we put on the table in terms of a very initial? Framework to address the needs of children uprooted in the context of a change in climate So last year we came or this year a few months ago In fact, we were able to present a new set of guiding principles for children on the move in the context of climate change The idea was really born when we got together UNICEF iom young climate activists policy makers practitioners And after two days of discussion, we said well, let's just try one thing Let's develop a set of guiding principles for children on the move in the context of climate change to guide What practitioners what policy makers what frontline service providers can and must do To prepare for the future that is already happening Now these guiding principles are available and we're very happy to share Them but more happily would be if you would use them if we would use them And if we can actually take them into the discussions at cop and beyond And apply them and stress test them and use them and see is that enough Is that one of the frameworks one of the pillars that we need to plan for climate mobility? That is centered also on the needs of children I personally am very excited In despite all the doom and the gloom. I think we have learned a lesson during kovat and that is that It's no good shutting borders or hiding in our own living rooms We have to work together because we are not safe if parts of the world are not safe But we are also if we work together across borders and boundaries Including across sectors and across ages with young people I think we can find the solutions. So we are very excited to see many of you again It's cop 27 itself not to make more pledges But to actually learn and speak and learn from young climate activists themselves Who will be there who will be putting more ideas on the table And who will be shaping hopefully with us together a future where climate mobility Is an integral part of our toolbox I think we have learned one thing in kovat and that is when borders close We all suffer and when borders are managed safely and humanely we can find solutions And that is borders across sectors silos Sciences and I'm very excited to be taking this forward together And I think monica you asked us to reflect on what is it that we need to do In this interconnected world that we're in To really address both the impacts of climate change food insecurity and displacement I think climate mobility is the future And it has to be a priority that we need to shape together And I also think that working with young people is the future if we invest and prepare together I think we can do it. Thank you very much Thank you verena I uh, I I have actually this question for Our closing moment and I will ask the same question to all the panelists and ask them to conclude the questions with with their views Thank you for bringing to us the story of alena marcila and timothy. I think it shows well that uh, you know, wherever They are independently from where they are They're facing multiple crisis conflict and climate induced and And and face the same experiences that that really call for for action. I think you mentioned the need for Legal and safe pathways. It's something that came out of the discussion Also this morning and and that mobility is part of adaptation and coping strategies already And And you conclude with a with a positive View on on the fact that that we can prepare I think the the issues you raised around forecasting and the needs to To look at what's coming and how we can be prepared is very important I think all of us have Together the tools to do so and to look at what will be coming and to prepare so that borders are never closed again Because we still are grappling with the impact of the fact that we have closed these borders and And thank you also for highlighting the guiding principles for children in the move On the move. I think that uh, you know, we can Bring together frameworks. We have the global compact on safe orderly and regular migration And we can link everything that that we do the the the additional frameworks to the the global compact So as to make it really our overarching framework Within which we can address The the needs of all the different People on the move I now turn to My colleague to see if there is Some request for the floor from Online or in the room. I think the the floor is open if you want to make some Remarks or comments in this moment. We don't have anything online If we don't have do we have Yes We have our colleague from IOM. Please you have the floor Hi, thank you very much. Monica for giving me the floor. It's it's a great pleasure to listen today to all our panelists and Learn from stories from children experiencing the harsh effects of climate change in the field and I'm very happy Verana mentioned the guiding principles that I am in UNICEF has recently released that is a policy framework That looks at protecting children on the move in a context of climate change and we hope everybody will will make use of this Very unique policy framework that will help us to look more into these Issues and from my side, I would like to to mention on a few things first and foremost without climate action We know that the young generation will be the one feeling the harsh effects of climate change in the upcoming decades But youth it's not only about the future youth is very much about the present Young people are already victims suffering the effects of climate change on their mobility well-being and livelihoods But they are not only victims. They are also key partners fighting climate change and avoid its worst impacts on their mobility When it comes to young people migration should be a choice and not a necessity As the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated governments cannot act in isolation in the face of an immense global crisis At IOM we are currently preparing our engagement for the COP 27 And for the climate change conference of youth COI 17 that is scheduled to take place in the Charme Sheikh at the beginning of November Through this engagement I am engagement in this conference We are very much looking looking to listen to young people and bring their messages and voices in all IOM events at COP 27 Youth is a key partner in addressing climate change and its impact on human mobility It is crucial we raise youth voices and enhance their participation to achieve an inclusive mobilization Of the whole society in decision-making processes related to climate change and migration But it's not enough. We just listen to their voices We need to understand them and it's not enough. We just give them a place to the table We need to take into account their recommendations and concerns about their future. Thank you very much Thank you. Thank you very much any I don't see We according to the information I see we have the voices network UK online Hello Yes, please go ahead Yeah, I'm Shah Mahmood Nasiri from WISIS network Which consists of asylum seeker in refugees in the UK I just want to raise some of the issues in terms of food security climate changes and of course listen learn from from covet emergency In terms of technology let's say food security or food and nutrition security and climate changes These are two different terminology and then food security. It's not only the survival issues This is much more survival and development brain and cognitive development And in long learn it's individual community and then the country development social economic development and of course contributing to the GDP This this issue should be You know Considered that whenever we are talking about food security. We should consider the nutrition security and also development mainly for the children And of course their mothers And migrant and refugee And asylum seekers community or society The issue is not that much considered Whenever we are talking about food and nutrition security Affordability and accessibility of course availability and accessibility But we should think about affordability As well and then the sustainability aspect should be Related and of course utilization as another issue that Length to how to utilize much more behavior changes issues but You know, there's not a regular surveillance and monitoring system to see the The progress the development of the children in terms of nutrition Which is lack and then I'm sure that this system is even with Our organized system is not there, but I do not know in a huge Refugee settlements I'm I don't that there could be a regular monitoring system to that And then climate change as a doctor very now mentioned climate change is not Sudden issue to come now. It's become part of our emergency preparedness Not to be responsive and then like quake with 19 can and then we were you know Rush to do planning and then to do timely response to that because we are not well prepared for that, but You know climate changes It's an existing emergency Which impact food and nutrition security Mainly to the migrant and asylum seeker settlements in communities and Listen Learn from covet. It could be a contributing factor For our preparedness, but we have to be prepared for all situations. You know, you see the The the recent flood in pakistan and afghanistan in other countries It was a huge disaster and then how many displacement and how many people they were in In short in real need of food And in other health services and then of course mental health is a consequence of such situation To the others as well, which is Poor poor attention is to what that What I would like to to suggest that let's do In a set up a mechanism how to respond on time of course There was the resilience issue mentioned that it's a long-term solution, but we have to be prepared It should be in our top priority resilience support of that because we have to also Give the knowledge to the community give the knowledge to the patterns give the knowledge to the to the migrant community They also and then of course we have to work in a well-coordinated manner Not only to put on duties the issues But you have to tackle and then of course Based on my understanding We do not have that much influence On on climate changes, but they can do further advocacy And then further communication to convince those that they are involved in climate changes Thank you very much for your attention and then listening to my wife Thank you very much for sharing your your thoughts and highlighting the needs to work on preparedness If there is no other interventions, I would like them to go back to our panelists and And I would like to ask them if they have some some some final words to share and I would like to ask each of them to to Conclude this sentence in an interconnected world to effectively address the impact of climate change food insecurity and displacement We would need to And I will start with omnia Yes, um, so my sentence would be we We lost you Can you hear me now? Yeah Okay, perfect. Um, so we would need to use the evidence use the real life experiences and stories of Communities, especially the younger generation at the frontline Translate the challenges as well as the science Into policy actions in a way that is sustainable Inclusive using formal part of the territory mechanisms to make sure that our voices Are integrated effectively and most importantly to learn from one another What countries are doing in terms of ensuring that there's a meaningful Integration and mainstreaming of voices of the most vulnerable Into the preparedness and the policy actions developed. Thank you Thank you very much. Um omnia I would like to ask the same question So in an interconnected world to effectively address the impact of climate change food insecurity and displacement We would need to To lose and I would like to ask you lose to add also You said at the beginning in your intervention that you wanted to come back to some point. So please feel free to do so So, thank you. Thank you so much. Uh, I will use I will put the thoughts together So in an ideal world, I will improve investment and policy decisions that can transform food and health systems and what I Wanted to say that there are three critical actions that we need to do a To achieve what I said First adopt a multi-sectoral policies We need to work on health. Of course food and agriculture environmental social protection came up as a recurrent area a to ensure food security and covet a Show that those systems are critical to ensure that people have access to food a but also a To be able to survive as they navigate crisis crisis Social protection increased in most of the countries now have a social protection programs I think that now 194 countries have a social protection programs as a result of covet So Keeping those systems functioning is is critical to in the preparedness part a we need to Ensure that some policies are repurposed to achieve better outcomes is often We often say we need to do more we need but sometimes we have to think about how we can repurpose what we have to make it more efficient and on the food system side we have identified a fiscal subsidies a shifting incentives for from producers to consumers, for example a Identifying price price incentives as policy actions that can improve the efficiency and resilience of food systems All options have trade-offs and I want to make sure that we always are aware of the trade-offs But certainly it's possible that our food systems become more resilient as we consider the options That our food systems become more resilient That also deliver healthier diets for all and in In the amounts that we need And without affecting the environment The second action that I would say is that in addition to improving the multi-sectoral policies, we need to improve food environments The the spaces where people access food There are several actions that WHO has promoted as part of this package of actions and again, I will go back to the point that It's not only about the food insecurity. It's about the quality of the diet Moving populations have a non-communicable diseases They call they bring With those conditions from their countries or they developing in the new countries, for example the new settings and often doesn't care And we don't need to forget that they carry the double burden of malnutrition So WHO has developed a six policies to help improve In The environments of which in which people access food reformulation of foods and products and beverages to make a that's the first one to make them healthier with less sugar less free less salt less unhealthy fats That's the first option The second is fiscal policies. There is a good way of improving And incentivizing the production of healthier foods local production of healthier foods in many cases And this is incentivizing taxing on healthy food options The third option and again is part of the systems That governments have in place Is to make sure that all governments procure food that has conditions to be healthy When people are the are consuming food and receiving food as the main source of a nutrition I mean particularly deliver social protection. It's important that that food has a right a Nutritional profile, but we go to schools. I mean, that's one of the areas All other services where governments provide foods They can be healthier and certainly we can implement that Appropriate food labeling is another way to ensure that consumers are engaged are informed And to make healthier choices A food fortification is another critical intervention to ensure that a The different populations a particularly moving populations and refugees and migrants have access to vitamin and minerals to higher quality diets And the last but not the least Is that a we need to have a to be aware that we need to prevent Practices or harmful marketing practices, particularly foods that are directed to children A diets that are Many unhealthy foods are cheap And are directed to children So we need to ensure that we protect them from that a harmful influence As we ensure that we deliver and governments deliver And all the communities deliver healthier food So that's a second action. Let's improve food environments And the third is let's keep strengthening health systems to be responsive to the needs of the moving populations There are frameworks to do that to make sure that a we mainstream or it's the migration policies are mainstream to improve the health systems So with those three actions That are related to investment and policy I think that it was a long we can improve a I mean services for and food That a moving population receives particularly in the context of climate change that we have in discussing about So that's a long answer to your question. I hand over the in the mic Thank you very much loose. It's indeed a long it has become a very long sentence But it's so I will summarize it. It's very important policies improve food environments and keep strengthening health systems That's a much shorter sentence, but it's very important points. So thank you very much for making them And now verena you I know you you already Mentioned the sentence, but I will ask it to you again in an interconnected world to effectively address the impact of climate change Food insecurity and displacement. We would need to Now I'm cheating Monica if I may I will use the opportunity to just add another twist as I'm thinking of my sentence I would say in an interconnected world to address the sort of the triple number of climate change food insecurity and displacement We will need to invest in those child critical services To make them climate resilient. That's the schools the social protection systems the child protection systems to make sure It is they open and operating before during and after the climate emerges Is we also need to think more creatively of what drives mobility and I think here recognizing food insecurity And you know the dependence on climate sensitive agriculture is really important And then thirdly really we need to embrace climate mobility as a key adaptation strategy I think here we can be bolder and we can be more forward-leaning And I think many of us working in the migration space. We know talking about planned relocation evacuation long-term mobility options Isn't necessarily always a popular topic, but it is an inevitable topic So it's exciting and I look forward to really seize that opportunity of harnessing what climate mobility can offer To all of us in that interconnected world back to you monica Thank you. Thank you very much Verena and now I turn to Sree Hari So for you in an interconnected world to effectively address the impact of climate change food insecurity and displacement We would need to We would require I would at least say we would require a whole of society Especially and then a whole of government approach working across sectors and stakeholders with Importance to young people But we also need to build policy for resilience and also build community resilience Especially since they often become first responders to any crisis We need to additionally build diversity in the local diet and use more nutritious primary resilient seeds, which were used prior to the prior when Before the globalized private private interests took over Lastly, it would be the engagement of young migrants themselves as key stakeholders in the community And at the end the decision-making table Which will be vital to the sustainability of national plants and policy Thank you Thank you very much and thanks to uh all our panelists for their contributions, I think three points that I take away from this discussion, which was very rich with also concrete examples coming from migrants themselves and and and from our panelists is the first is the The need for multi-sectoral policies through a whole of governments and a whole of society approach for resilience food systems and for access to to to health care The second is the voice of migrants and the need to include migrants in the planning and in the search for solutions And the third is From pledges to action. I think it's time for Implementation and for action And we count on all of you to who will be in Egypt in in less than a few weeks To make sure that mobility is included as an adaptation and coping strategy So thank you very much for your participation And this panel is now closed Thank you Monica and thank you the panelists our next panelist start in 10 minutes 430 sharp Thank you. It was very good


What's good Josh boy Ross back again with another video so we're gonna check out another 10 iconic special moves and taunts they hyped up the fan We checked out. I believe the first part of this on a wrestling flashback So we're gonna check out the second part of this as well. There's compilation I love when certain wrestlers do a little certain move or whatnot that always gets the fans hype You know, it's just a part of their I guess you could say their their character their moveset And you know their overall appearance, so we're gonna get right into this one, man Appreciate all the love and support you guys shown on channel. Let's check this out This is so on Taunts are one of the ways a wrestler can connect with the audience a signature Taunt can be a thing people associate the wrestler with while at the same time being something the fans can reenact themselves A taunt might be a way of hyping up the crowd before a big move or can simply be something the rest That does to look cool and stand out We've already covered numerous different examples so far in this series But we'll highlight some more today as we look at 10 iconic wrestling taunts part 3 before we start today's list is sponsored by Nord VPN I've been a Nord customer for years, and if you spawns by fans and wrestlers alike Sean Waltman as the one two three kid and later became a staple of the Presentation it fit perfectly with the group's anti-authority rebel identity the chop was targeted How many of y'all got in trouble for hitting the the suck it man back when you was a kid? How many of y'all got in trouble? I know I did but it was just Come on man.  You weren't allowed to flip people off You could stand on a turnbuckle and you go gay buddy right there Oh Undertaker's throat the undertaker Supernatural character that sparked fear into the heart of his opponents But the dead man's powers became even greater by using the throat slash to signal for the tombstone pile driver The Phenom would stick his tongue out and combine the already famous eye roll with Spell the end for his opponents The likes of Chris Benoit on Anderson and the Undertaker's brother Kane also used the throat slash But when it comes to wrestling it was the Undertaker when John's seen to do that I just I couldn't take it Don't ever do that again John who made it famous Rob Van Damme points his thumbs few wrestlers His innovative in-ring style resulted in a special connection with the crowd that was complimented by a legendary taunt that fans love to replicate One of a kind was the perfect way to describe Rob and no one was cooler and no one got higher than RVD Daniel Bryan says yes The yes-chan has become one of modern wrestling's most recognizable catchphrases and taunts Daniel Bryan drew inspiration from mixed martial artist Diego Sanchez who would repeat the word yes during his entrance Sanchez was himself inspired to say yes by motivational speaker Tony Robbins Wow While holding the world championship after Vince McMahon had told him to celebrate all his victories as if he'd won the Super Bowl The yes taunt was then born and he got over with the fans This is despite the fact that Brian began using the taunt as a heel And would even go as far as to introduce a no-taunt counteract the fans chanting yes However He was ready to embrace what would eventually become the yes movement Which ultimately led him to the main event of WrestleMania One of the greatest main events of all time man It's one of them Brian most commonly used the yes taunt during his entrance as well as before performing his running knee finishing move DDP's diamond cut a sign The diamond cut was one of the most popular resting moves of the 90s The fans just couldn't wait to see where DDP would hit the manoeuvre from They love the move and the man behind it DDP was the first people's champion He could often be seen entering and leaving through the crowd where he would throw up the diamond cut a sign Along with the fans the diamond cut a sign helped DDP cement himself as a huge baby face in wcb by establishing a popular taunt All the fans could replicate Scott Hall's toothpick throw we could have gone with his taunt to signal for the razor's edge The spooky fingers the pointing then the signature pose or the too sweet sign But we've chosen the toothpick throw because of its uniqueness and how much it fit the character From his look to the numerous taunts and whether he was scott hall or razor ramone the bad guy ooze charisma Just chewing the toothpick helped add to the cool factor of razor But then he took it a step further by throwing the toothpick at the camera and his opponent DDP was the one who initially suggested using the toothpick on television After the idea came to him whilst in a waffle house and I grabbed the toothpick from both of us And I look at scottie go I got an idea when we get to the promo We take the toothpicks out and we flick them to the camera The toothpick throw was one of the little things that scott did but as is often the case in wrestling The little things can end up having a big impact. Yeah Rip flares. Yeah, man. It's just subtle, but he's so cool with it. He's the cool bad guy Get out of here. I love it man. Rest in peace A man of many robes many championships and many taunts and the flare flop to begging for mercy Dropping the elbow on his toothpick So renowned for his ability to talk to talk, but he was able to back this up by literally walking the walk Famous flair struck out a few woos along the way The walk was inspired by jackie fargo who also influenced jeff jerry's version of the struck struck there When it comes to resting it doesn't get any more legendary than the flare and the iconic flare struck was just one of the ways Nate showcased who he was as the limousine riding jeff flying his stealing will be dealing son of a gun Up for the jackhammer during his entrance goldberg's at the tone for what was to come First by banging his head off a steel door and then being shot with pyro only to walk away breathing smoke Then once the bell rang goldberg had an explosive in ring style and this quickly resonated with the fans in the late 90s Goldberg's matches were finished off with a spear and jackhammer combination that took resting by storm Goldberg first set up for the spear by crouching down in the corner and measuring his opponent as the crowd stood on their feet Following the spear goldberg hyped the fans even more by jumping in the air and snarling at the camera in anticipation of the jackhammer This encapsulation And ridiculously intense persona his matches were so different and chaotic the fans just ate it up Goldberg later added a throat sash and pointing to the sky taunt to signal for the jackhammer But the fans knew exactly what was coming as soon as goldberg hit the spear The fans reacted with excitement while goldberg taunted in the ring and the announcers went nuts on commentary The bell rang spear by goldberg I didn't like this Inspired by the Budweiser commercial that itself was inspired by a short film The Dudley boys were able to take a pop culture reference and smartly include it as part of their act The answer was divan who came down from the top rope burying his head into the opponent's groin But not before performing The fans always pop big for the move while even the announcers couldn't help but repeat the phrase Can't say what's up It was our headbutt was usually a precursor to another iconic turn of the taunt get the table get the table Love it Samoa Joe walks away Samoa Joe walking away as his opponent attempted an aerial maneuver was a simple yet effective way to counter remove No Nope I love that It made sense as why exert extra energy dodging an attack when you can just calmly step out the way It made sense Drop kicks Joe out of the way The opponent always crashes and burns while Joe literally walks away without such a good That brings us to the end of this video Hey, man, definitely We're gonna go ahead and give this video a like because wrestling flashback has some of the great Best wrestling content on youtube, man. Uh, yeah, just What are we talking about? I see you jumping off the ropes or whatever Why can't you why potentially injure myself? I just walk away. Just uh, no, I'm good And you just crash and burn and just sit there like no, I'm not No, I love that. I love the so joe a so joe a Samoa Joe. Nope. I love it. That was great, man Comment down below. Let me know what was your favorite Uh Iconic special move or taunt from this particular video Appreciate all of love and support you guys have shown on the channel road to 150k And I'm sitting in this be the youtube wrestling champion of the world and your intercultural heavyweight champion Appreciate y'all can't give me see you next


Welcome back to Send City guys and girls. We're glad you're with us. You've been watching theCUBE all week. We know that. This is theCUBE's live coverage of AWS re-invent 22 from the Venetian Expo Center where there are tens of thousands of people and this event, if you know it, covers the entire strip. There are over 55,000 people here, hundreds of thousands online. Dave, this has been a fantastic show. It is clear everyone's back. We're hearing phenomenal stories from AWS and its ecosystem. We've got a great customer story coming up next featured on the main stage.  And one of the things that we heard from Adam Salipsky was, you know, we're going beyond digital transformation into business transformation. Okay, that could mean a lot of things to a lot of people. I have a sense of what it means and I think this next interview really talks to business transformation beyond digital transformation, beyond IT. Excellent, we've got two guests. One of them is an alumni. Scott Mullins joins us, GM AWS Worldwide Management Services and Brad Peterson is here, the EVP CIO and CTO of NASDAQ. Welcome guys, great to have you. Hey guys, thanks for having us. Brad, talk a little bit. There was an announcement with NASDAQ and AWS last year, a year ago, about how they're partnering to transform capital markets. It was a highlight of last year. Remind us what you talked about and what's going on since then. Yeah, so we were very excited. I work with the Dean of Freedmen. She's my boss CEO of NASDAQ and she was on stage with Adam for his first keynote as CEO of AWS and we made the commitment that we were going to move our markets to the cloud and we've been a long time customer of AWS and everyone said, you know, the last piece, the last frontier to be moved was the actual matching where all the messages, the quotes, get matched together to become confirmed orders. So that was what we committed to less than a year ago and we said we were gonna move one of our options markets in the US, we have six of them and options markets are the most challenging, they're the most high volume and high performance. So we said, let's start with something really challenging and prove we can do it together with AWS. So we committed to that. And results so far? So I can sit here and say that November 7th, so we are live, we're in production and it's the MRX exchange is called Mercury. So we shortened it for MRX. We like acronyms and technology. And so we started with a phased launch of symbols. So you kind of allow yourself to make sure you have all the functionality working and then you add some volume on it and we are going to complete the conversion on Monday. So we are all good so far and I have some results I can share, but maybe Scott, if you wanna talk about why we did that together and what we've done together over many years. Well, you know, Brad, I think it's a natural extension of our relationship, right? You know, you look at the 12 year relationship that AWS and NASDAQ have had together. It's just the next step in the way that we're going to help the industry transform itself. And so not just NASDAQ's business transformation for itself, but really a blueprint and a template for the entire capital markets industry. And so many times people will ask me, who's using cloud well? Who's doing well in the cloud? And NASDAQ is an easy example to point to of somebody who's truly taking advantage of these capabilities because the cloud isn't a place. It's a set of capabilities. And so this is a shining example of how to use these capabilities to actually deliver real business benefit, not just to your organization, but I think the really exciting part is the market technology piece of how you're serving other exchanges. So last year before re-invent, we said, and it's obvious within the tech ecosystem that technology companies are building on top of the cloud. We said, the big trend that we see in the 2020s is that consumers of IT, historically your customers are going to start taking their stacks, their software, their data, their services, and sassifying, putting it on the cloud and delivering new services to customers. So when we saw Dean on stage last year, we called it, by the way, we called it SuperCloud. Yeah, okay. I like the term. I like the term. I love it. SuperCloud. So when we saw it, Dean on stage said, that's a great example. We've seen Capital One doing some similar things, we've had some conversations with the US West. It's happening, right? So talk about how you actually do that.  Are you connecting to that? Are you, is it all in the cloud? Let's paint a picture of what the architecture looks like. Yeah, and there's, so you started with the business transformation, so I like that. And the SuperCloud designation. What we are is we own and operate exchanges in the United States and in Europe and in Canada. So we have our own markets that we're looking at modernizing. So we look at this as a modernization of the capital market infrastructure, but we happen to be the leading technology provider for other markets around the world. So you either build your own or you source from us. And we're by far the leading provider. So a lot of our customers said, how about if you go first? It's kind of like Mikey, you know, give it to Mikey, let him try it. He likes it. The penguin off the iceberg. Yeah, and so what we did is we said, to make this easy for our customers. So you want to ask your customers, you want to figure out how you can do it so that you don't disrupt their business. So we took the Edge compute that was announced a few years ago, Amazon Outposts, and we were one of the early customers. So we started immediately to innovate with, jointly innovate with Amazon. And we said, this looks interesting for us. So we extended the region into our Carderette data center in Northern New Jersey, which gave us all the services that we know and love from Amazon. So our technical operations team has the same tools and services. But then we were able to connect because in the markets, what we're doing is we need to connect fairly. So we need to ensure that you still have that fairness element. So by bringing it into our building and extending the Edge compute platform, the AWS Outposts into Carderette, that allowed us to also talk very succinctly with our regulators. That's a familiar territory. It's all buttoned up. And that simplified the conversion conversation with the regulators. It simplified it with our customers. And then it was up to us to then deliver time and performance. Because you had alternatives. You could have taken a more mature, kind of on-prem legacy stack, figured out how to bolt that in, less cloudy. So why did you choose Outposts? Curious. Well, Outposts looked like when it was announced that it was really about extending territory. So we had our customers in mind, our global customers. And they don't always have an AWS region in country. So a lot of you think about a regulator, they're going to say, well, where is this region located? So finally, we saw this ability to grow the cloud geographically. And of course, we're in Sweden, so we work with the AWS region in Stockholm. But not every country has a region yet. And we're working as fast as we can to build an every single location around the planet. So we saw it as an investment that Amazon had to grow the geographic footprint. And we have customers in many smaller countries that don't have a region today. So maybe talk a little bit about what you guys had in mind. And it's a multi-industry trend. The edge compute has four or five industries that you can say this really makes a lot of sense to extend the cloud. And David, you said it earlier, there's a trend of ecosystems that are coming onto the cloud. This is an opportunity to bring the cloud to an ecosystem, to an existing ecosystem. If you think about NASDAQ's data center in Carderet, there's an ecosystem of NASDAQ's clients there that are there to be with NASDAQ. And so it was actually much easier for us as we worked together over really a four-year period thinking about this and how to make this technological transition to actually bring the capabilities to that ecosystem rather than trying to bring the ecosystem to AWS in one of our public regions. And so that's been our philosophy with Outpost all along, is actually extending our capabilities that our customers know and love into any environment that they need to be able to use that in. And so to Brad's point about servicing other markets in different countries around the world, it actually gives us that ability to do that very quickly, very nimbly, and very succinctly and successfully. Did you guys write a working backwards document for this initiative? We did. We actually did. So to be, this is one of the fully exercised, we have a couple of, by the way, Scott used to work at NASDAQ and we have a number of people who have gone from NASDAQ to AWS and from AWS to NASDAQ. So we have adopted, that's one of the things that we think is an effective way to really clarify what you're trying to accomplish with a project. So I know you were a little bit kidding on that, but we did. No, I was totally shocked. Because I want to go to the, like, where are we in the milestones and take us through kind of what we can expect going forward now that we work backwards. Yep. We did. We did. And I think from a milestone perspective, as you heard Brad say, we're very excited that we've stood up MRX in production, having worked at NASDAQ myself. When you make a change and when you stand up a market, that's always a moment where you're working with your community, with your clients, and you've got a market-wide call that you're working and you're wanting to make sure that everything goes smoothly. And so when that call went smoothly and that transition went smoothly, I know you were very happy, but on the AWS side, we were also very happy as well that we hit that milestone within the timeframe that the Dean has said. And that was very important, I know, to you and for us as well. Yeah, and our commitment, so the time base of this one was by the end of 2022. So November 7th, check. We got that one done. That's awesome. The other one is we said, we wanted the performance to be as good or better than our current platform that we have. And we were putting a new version of our derivatives or options software onto this platform. We had confidence because we already rolled it to one market in the U.S. Then we rolled it earlier this year, and that was last year. And we rolled it to our Nordic derivatives market and we saw really good customer feedback. So we had confidence in our software was going to run. Now we had to marry that up with the Outpost platform. And we said, we really wanna achieve as good or better performance. And we achieved better performance. So that's noticeable by our customers. And that one was the biggest question. I think our customers understand when we set a date, we test them with them. We have our national test facility that they can test in. But really the big question was how is it gonna perform? And that was, I think, one of the biggest proof points that we're really proud about jointly together. And it took both of us to really innovate and get the platform right. And we did a number of iterations. We're never done, but we have a final result that says it is better. Well, congratulations. It sounds like you guys have done a tremendous job. What can we expect in 2023 from NASDAQ and AWS? Any little nuggets you can share? Well, we just came from the partner, the partner keynote with Adam and Ruba. And we had another colleague on stage. So Nick Chubitario. So he is actually someone who brought digital assets and cryptocurrencies onto the Venmo PayPal platform. He joined NASDAQ about a year ago. And we announced that in our marketplace, the Amazon marketplace, we're going to offer a digital custody, digital assets custody solution. So that is certainly going to be something we're excited about in 2023. I know we got to go, but I love this story. It fits so great at the SuperCloud, but we've learned so much from Amazon over the years. Two pizza teams, we talked about working backwards, customer obsession, but this is a story of NASDAQ pointing its internal capabilities externally. We're already on that journey and then bringing that to the cloud. Very powerful story. I wonder what's next in this, because we learn a lot and it's like the NFL, we copy it. Think about product-market fit. You think about scientific go-to-market and seeing that applied to the financial services industry and obviously other industries is really exciting to see. So congratulations. Oh, thank you. And look, I think it's an example of invent, and simplifying, that's another Amazon principle. And this is, I think, a great example of inventing on behalf of an industry and then continually working to simplify the way that the industry works with all of us. Last question, and we've got only 30 seconds left, Brad, I'm going to direct it to you. Do you have the opportunity to take over the NASDAQ sign in Times Square and say a phrase that summarizes what NASDAQ and AWS are doing together? What would it say? Oh, and I think I'm going to put that up on Monday. So we're going to close the market together and it's going to say modernizing the capital markets infrastructure together. So, very cool. Excellent, dropping the mic. Guys, this was fantastic. Thank you so much for joining us. We appreciate you joining us on the show, sharing your insights and what NASDAQ and AWS are doing. We're going to have to keep watching this. You're going to have to come back next year. All right. We're our guests and for Dave Vellante, I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching theCUBE, the leader in live enterprise and emerging tech coverage.
