NUESTRAS METAS
Durante la Semana del Clima de Nueva York 2023, nosotros, los Pueblos Indígenas y las Comunidades Locales, estamos liderando el movimiento de preservación ambiental.
Nuestra misión es clara: buscamos dar prioridad a nuestras voces en las conversaciones sobre el clima. Abogamos por políticas que respeten nuestro conocimiento tradicional, protejan nuestros derechos, aborden la violencia en nuestras tierras y aumenten la financiación para nuestras comunidades.
Nos estamos uniendo con líderes de nuestros territorios para llevar nuestros mensajes y propuestas a todas las discusiones relacionadas con nuestras tierras.
Shandia es el nombre de nuestra plataforma común que creamos para facilitar la financiación directa a los territorios de nuestros pueblos y comunidades para acciones que combatan el cambio climático, conserven la biodiversidad y sustenten nuestros derechos y desarrollo autodeterminado. Durante toda la semana, lideraremos esfuerzos de defensa para desafiar los sistemas de financiamiento climático existentes y garantizar que los recursos lleguen a los pueblos que protegen la biodiversidad en los territorios más ricos.
Nuestro objetivo es amplificar nuestras voces a nivel global, destacando nuestra profunda conexión con la tierra, nuestro rico conocimiento tradicional y prácticas sostenibles. Nuestra delegación conecta las conversaciones de alto nivel con las realidades sobre el terreno, representando a las regiones de selva tropical de todo el mundo. Buscamos aliados entre las instituciones del campo y los ciudadanos comprometidos para garantizar que nuestras perspectivas sean respetadas en las discusiones sobre nuestros territorios.
Nuestro objetivo es crear conciencia a nivel global sobre la criminalización y violencia que afecta a nuestras comunidades y territorios, resaltando su impacto en nuestro papel de guardianes de la biodiversidad Queremos abordar la responsabilidad que los estados y las corporaciones tienen en la perpetuación de la violencia y la destrucción ambiental. Aprovechando alianzas con institutos de investigación y organizaciones de derechos humanos, revelamos conexiones ocultas entre los intereses corporativos y nuestras experiencias de violencia.
