Event Description

This will be a Q&A panel event with four Indigenous climate activists. The focus of this event will be to hear Indigenous perspectives on climate change and to create a space where Indigenous voices are centered within the climate conversation. Right now, Indigenous communities protect 80% of the world’s biodiversity and indigenous technologies are used in climate adaptation efforts; however, Indigenous activists are seldom given the same platforms and support as white activists. This panel considers how sustainability, resilience, and world-building look from diverse Indigenous perspectives.
