Pourquoi participer
The session will explore the need for and approaches to advancing reconciliation and justice as part of human rights-based approaches to conservation, through a panel discussion followed by interactive small groups.
Description de la séance
The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) calls for implementation through Humans-Rights Based Approaches (HRBA) and advocates for centering equity and power-sharing in conservation targets. The framework clearly states the significance of respecting Indigenous and local communities and the stewardship of their traditional territories. Furthermore, the framework emphasizes the importance of intersectional perspectives and critical inclusion of participatory strategies. Historically, Indigenous Peoples and local communities have suffered severe injustices under the guise of conservation. This includes dispossession of their lands, violations of their human rights, and blatant encroachment on traditional cultures and values. This session will provide a platform to a diverse group of participants to discuss redress and reconciliation and reflect on grievance and accountability mechanisms surrounding these processes.Organised by
