PROTECT NATURE'S GUARDIANS


Indigenous peoples make up 6% of the world’s population, but protect 80% of our biodiversity.

Indigenous people have the knowledge and experience to offer solutions to many of the issues posed by the climate crisis. Their protection of pristine environments puts them in direct conflict with those who would continue to exploit and despoil the planet. Indigenous land rights need to be protected in order for communities to continue protecting our biodiversity. By standing with them, we stand with the earth.

TAKE ACTION

  • Donate or get involved with Survival International who are a movement of people from over 100 countries. Their vision is a world where tribal peoples are respected as contemporary societies and their human rights protected. They reject government funding to guarantee their absolute independence and integrity.

  • For an on-the-ground campaign we recommend supporting the Fridays for Future Ajuda Pantanal you can donate here to help protect the burning wetlands and traditional communities of Pantanal, Brasil.

  • Follow Indigenous land protectors on social media to stay up to date with campaigns (lots of ideas below)
