This week, we witnessed the endorsement of the #PactForTheFuture — a landmark declaration that signals a pivotal moment in our global response to climate change, the Director said. Today’s event is more than just a conversation; it is an opportunity to shape the path forward.

A refreshing thought: “The climate fight cannot rely on economics and science alone -- culture must take its place at the heart of decision-making.” Culture “is how we make sense of our world, heal our wounds and bridge generations. When glaciers melt or rivers dry, it is not just livelihoods at stake but identities, languages, oral wisdom and ways of knowing that risk being lost. This was recently underscored by the historic decision at COP16 in Colombia to protect biodiversity by centring Indigenous knowledge - a recognition of the critical role such wisdom plays in crafting sustainable solutions.” Well said Syed Jazib Ali mudland. #culture #COP #COP16 #biodiversity #people #planet #nature
