#IndigenousPeoplesDay2024 7.6M Hectares of landscape and seascapes combined under improved management thanks to the #IndigenousPeoples and Local Communities? Learn what else IPLCs have achieved in Phase 2 of the #InclusiveConservationInitiative: 🔗shorturl.at/VK2e5

Nearly 80% of the Earth’s biodiversity exists in areas managed by #IndigenousPeoples and local communities. Learn how inclusive conservation (@IPsLeadNature) supports stewardship in these territories: wrld.bg/HGrZ50Q8vI2

Protected and conserved areas are vital places are vital for both people and #nature but must almost double in area on land & more than triple in the ocean for the 30% target to be reached.    Learn more tinyurl.com/yfk2mcju    @unepwcmc @protectedplanet

✅Approved today at #GEFcouncil68: @theGEF and #LDCF-supported FARM+ program builds on the existing program & will help reduce agrochemical use, improve soil health, and combat pollution, advancing sustainable, climate-resilient agriculture. 🔗 thegef.org/projects-opera…

In a milestone for #Indigenousrights & conservation, #Mapuche communities will share decision-making power with the government in managing part of Villarrica National Park. The agreement was part of Futa Mawiza, an initiative supported by @IPsLeadNature t.ly/b44JD

This agreement builds on the ongoing efforts of our ICI partners Futa Mawiza, an initiative focused on strengthening Indigenous Peoples’ #leadership and governance in conservation within Wallmapu (#Mapuche Territory).

Learn more about how the signing of the Framework Agreement for the Governance and Management Council of Villarrica National Park marks a pivotal move towards an #inclusiveconservation model, harmonizing #Indigenousknowledge with state policies. 👉bit.ly/4iuPYTZ

By placing #Indigenous Peoples’ #leadership and governance at the heart of conservation efforts, initiatives like Füta Mawiza demonstrate how shared decision-making and #traditionalknowledge can redefine conservation as a more equitable and sustainable practice globally.

We are thrilled to celebrate a groundbreaking milestone for #Indigenousrights and #conservation! For the first time in Chile’s 🇨🇱 history, #Mapuche communities will share full decision-making power with the government in managing the southern sector of Villarrica National Park.

That's a wrap! Dr Aguilar of @IUCN closes the event calling on collaboration: this is not a journey of #IndigenousPeoples alone but the journey of us all. Thx @IUCN_GovRights + @IUCNClimateTeam & @COP29_AZ for organizing and supporting our gender account live tweets! #COP29Baku

Today at the @UNFCCC #COP29Azerbaijan at the side-event Indigenous Guardians of the Earth: Protecting our Ancestral Lands with @IinKenya @Iwbnglobal @2018aiwo @IAITPTF @mulenkei said: "Protecting our ancestral lands is clearly tied to our rights and biodiversity conservation".

With climate impacts intensifying globally, COP 29 must deliver real, accelerated progress on the #ParisAgreement—especially on finance—and enable stronger national commitments to keep the 1.5°C goal within reach.    IUCN’s #COP29 positions explain how iucn.org/cop29

Recent breaches show the 1.5°C threshold is in jeopardy; urgent action is needed to cut greenhouse gas emissions, close the implementation gap and phase out #FossilFuels.    Learn more in our #COP29 position paper iucn.org/cop29
