Webinar: Uplifting Real Solutions

The Colonial Urge to Commodify the Climate Crisis Part 2: Uplifting Real Solutions

Hosted November 16, 2023

As we navigate the complexities posed by this climate crisis, it is vital to address not only genuine solutions but also the false solutions that can perpetuate more environmental harm and social injustices. The aim of this webinar series is to facilitate open and informative discussions that shed light on various false solutions that are often presented as viable approaches to combat the climate crisis and counteract them with real, Indigenous-led solutions.

This panel discussion highlights real solutions that are Indigenous-led, covering questions like:

• What are real solutions?

• How are Indigenous peoples enacting real solutions in their territories?

• How can we support Indigenous-led solutions?

• Why is this relevant in light of COP28 negotiations?
