Guardians of the Earth: Indigenous Peoples and Environmental Stewardship

In this presentation on Indigenous Peoples and Environmental Stewardship, I will discuss the crucial role that Indigenous communities play in preserving our natural world. I will highlight their deep connection to the land, their generally sustainable practices, and how their traditional knowledge contributes to biodiversity conservation. Additionally, I will emphasise the need for recognising Indigenous rights and fostering partnerships to address environmental challenges and achieve a harmonious coexistence between people and the planet.
