Indigenous peoples and local communities play an important role in finding climate solutions
We must be the good caretaker and not the bad landlords. It’s not just Indigenous Peoples, it’s all human beings. It’s all plant life, it’s all water bodies, our sky relatives. We are all related.
Great-Grandmother Mary Lyons, LCIPP Annual Gathering of Knowledge Holders at COP 28
Our discussions and rich exchanges in Girkonjárga-Kirkenes will undoubtedly guide and shape our collective climate change initiatives moving forward. The LCIPP under the UNFCCC offers an inclusive space to share these outcomes. It is a platform to discuss the impacts of climate change on our lives and the Arctic, to identify needs, and to reshape the global approach to nature and climate change.
Gunn-Britt Retter, FWG member representing IPOs from the Arctic United Nations Indigenous sociocultural region
Agricultural practices that include indigenous and local knowledge can contribute to overcoming the combined challenges of climate change, food security, biodiversity conservation, and combating desertification and land degradation
