What is the LANDBACK movement and some of the origin points that have created this moment of mass support for Indigenous land return? In this panel, NDN Collective alongside key ally and partner, Indigenous Climate Action will be unpacking the LANDBACK movement. Join us to learn what LANDBACK is and to hear stories about how this Indigenous frontline led movement and call to action has shifted the conditions for how we are engaging with policy, philanthropy, corporations and government. LANDBACK is more than just a demand, it is tangible way to how we achieve climate action and justice for all peoples. Our panelists look forward to sharing lessons learned, success stories and some of the forward facing visioning they are holding for how we utilize LANDBACK as a catalyst for achieving our climate goals in North America and beyond. In this panel speakers will share stories and showcase how #LANDBACK exists and is being led in various regions of the world as a strategy to build Indigenous power, advance equity and justice and combat the climate crisis. We know that Indigenous Peoples across the world manage 80% of the world's biodiversity, thus signaling how key Indigenous leadership and knowledge is in mitigating and adapting to the climate crisis. Indigenous-led conservation and land management practices are not novel ideas to solve today's largest ecological problems, but rather, tried and true strategies that deserves investment and support from private and public sectors.
