First time ever that the IPCC has had a mandate to include diverse knowledge systems within the process, launched by the first workshop ever on the topic here in the UK this week. Thankful to have a small group of other Indigenous folks here as it was not an easy process but we made good headway.

Recently contacted Indigenous Nations in Peru want conservationists to stay away. The signatories also stress that Indigenous self-governance is the only way to protect both their communities and their families still living in voluntary isolation, and who face increasing threats from outsiders.

Indigenous Elders' voices on health-systems change informed by planetary health: a qualitative and relational systems mapping inquiry
Indigenous Peoples and their knowledge systems are increasingly being looked to for solutions regarding climate change, including within clinical health-care settings. Indigenous Elders specifically are noted knowledge keepers within their communities and are often looked to with great respect for their Land-based knowledges as they pertain to planetary health approaches. We sought to explore the views of health-systems change informed by planetary health within the circumpolar north from the perspective of Indigenous Elders.
