- Celebrating Sustainable Use of Marine Resources: Wisdom from the Mukkuvar Community
As we continue to celebrate the International Day for Biodiversity, we are delighted to share a video message from Dr. Johnson Jament of the Mukkuvar Community in South India.
In this video, Dr. Johnson highlights the sustainable practices his community has used to manage marine resources for centuries. He emphasizes the importance of Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) and urges governments, project developers, and the scientific community to implement FPIC before initiating any development activities along coastal waters.
Let’s learn from and support these age-old practices to protect our biodiversity and ensure the effective implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KM-GBF).
