📣 Motion 107 Passed: Scaling-up Indigenous leadership in the protection of biodiversity and the sacred! 🌿 Sacred sites and species are vital to #biodiversity, not just symbolic. Indigenous Peoples must lead #conservation on their lands, with full access to sacred places.

This is why the terminology of ‘Indigenous Peoples and local communities’ is necessary even when it is conceptually distinct. @IUCN, what would you do to support correct terminology?
