Many Faces of Conservation: October 4, 2022

This virtual public event was held on October 4, 2022. cei.sonoma.edu/...
Climate change has a deep and long-lasting effect on the environment and livelihoods worldwide. More and more countries acknowledge that culture, conservation and resilience have become ideas that transcend borders and inspire innovative, preventive, and adaptive solutions, which in many cases come from indigenous communities. Without them - the original owners and guardians of the Earth - and local actions, our planet’s further degradation will be unavoidable. How can you become a Champion for Nature? This and other questions will be raised and discussed in this dialogue with community leaders and experts from South and North America.
Speakers:
Albert Chan Dzul (a Maya from the municipality of Sanahcat in the Mexican Yucatán), Coordinator, U Yich Lu’um
Ron Goode, Tribal Chairman, North Fork Mono Tribe
Patricia Nenquihui, President, Association of Waorani Women of Ecuador
Moderator: Alejandro Ibarra Salgado, Monitoring and Evaluation Officer from HIVOS - All Eyes on the Amazon (AEA) and Amazon Indigenous Health Route (AIR) Programs
