Historic! At #COP16Colombia landmark agreements:
- Establishing a Subsidiary Body for Article 8(j) to support indigenous peoples and local communities.
- Setting the 8j programme of work
- Recognition of Afro-descendant peoples as custodians of biodiversity within the Convention

[Forest Peoples Programme @ForestPeoplesP]

A new Subsidiary body on Article 8j "will be a space for dialogue, the creation of new international law, and make progress on the rights of #IndigenousPeoples and #localcommunities at the national level"
