Partnerships remain critical in advancing Indigenous Peoples’ access to renewable energy and climate finance. During #UNPFII side event, Terence Hay-Edie of the @undp.org -GEF SGP reflected how collaboration with REP helped expand existing biodiversity work toward Indigenous Peoples’ energy access.

“The work with the REP was an important opportunity to expand our existing work with Indigenous Peoples on biodiversity to explore Indigenous Peoples improved access to energy under the GEF climate change focal area.”

This model of community‑based renewable energy means communities decide what technology is appropriate, contribute labor and resources, manage operations and share benefits that go beyond electricity into economic activities. Because ownership is local, systems continue to function over time

Many communities still rely on fuel or pay high prices for unreliable power — even as their lands host dams, wind farms, and transmission lines. Meanwhile, the growing demand for critical minerals is driving a new wave of extractive pressure...

Yet they remain chronically under-resourced and are often the last to benefit from the large-scale energy projects built on their territories. Energy poverty among Indigenous communities is vastly under-reported because statistics are rarely dis aggregated by ethnicity.
