“Coming to the Indigenous Village and being amongst my own people was healing, uplifting, and it was inspiring.” Last month, ILI built the Indigenous Village in Montreal as part of international negotiations on preventing global biodiversity loss – the UN Biodiversity Summit. It showcased Indigenous Peoples' incredible leadership in sustaining healthy lands and waters all around the world. For Indigenous Peoples & allies alike, the Village was a place to learn about each other's traditions, share in ceremony. Take a look into what it was like on the ground.
