This event brought together Indigenous women leaders globally to share firsthand experiences of colonization and climate disruption, while highlighting powerful solutions.
They showcased strategies upholding Indigenous rights and sovereignty, bringing health and justice to communities. The event also honored women land defenders protecting ecosystems, often at great personal risk. Panelists discussed democracy, reciprocal economies, rights of nature, and Indigenous rights as vital ways forward for the world.
