This capacity building training workshop, part of the LCIPP second three-year workplan activity 5, aims to:

• Enhance the capacity of Parties, UNFCCC constituted bodies, and other stakeholders to strengthen the human-rights-based engagement of Indigenous Peoples and engagement of local communities in national, regional, and global climate policymaking, as well as in the work of relevant bodies and processes under and outside the Convention related to assessing and responding to climate change.
• Bring together indigenous and local knowledge holders and representatives to directly deliver training in best-practice methods of engagement.
• Promote among stakeholders an understanding of the LCIPP and its functions to strengthen climate action by integrating diverse values and knowledge systems in the design and implementation of climate policies and actions.
• Update and take stock of existing policies, actions, protocols, guidelines, and communications related to the engagement of Parties, stakeholders interested in the inclusion of the knowledge and practices of the indigenous peoples and local communities.

Further details on the event will be posted here soon.
