“Everything is connected: the air, the river, the fire. Every element of nature is connected.” – Dugunawin, Conservation International partner and member of the Arhuaco Indigenous people
As guardians of more than a quarter of Earth’s land and 80 percent of biodiversity on the planet, Indigenous peoples and local communities bring a great deal of knowledge to the global fight against climate change.
The path to a healthy future requires the full and effective participation of Indigenous peoples and local communities in conservation. #IndigenousDay
