Seven years after the murder of Indigenous activist #BertaCáceres, Honduras 🇭🇳 remains one of the deadliest countries in the world for defenders.

We stand with those who demand justice for Berta, and with land and environmental defenders all over the world.

#COP15 began this week in #Montreal🇨🇦! At the center of negotiations to tackle the #BiodiversityCrisis🐝🌿 is the 30x30 initiative, which seeks to designate 30% of land and oceans as protected areas. The framework must respect Indigenous Peoples' #LandRights. Find out why below👇

#IndigenousPeoples are already affected by #ClimateChange but we have the knowledge to mitigate it and adapt to it. That’s why we need to have a voice at the global level. The “global” will not solve the climate crisis if it doesn’t listen to the “local” - @KantutaConde at #COP27
