Dear Friend,
Next week the High-level political Forum on sustainable development is kicking off - an important milestone on the path to COP 26. Indigenous Peoples' participation is limited, but the Indigenous Peoples Major Group is doing an amazing job to make your voices heard. Also, we're just a week away from the Expert Mechanism's virtual 14th session. We'll provide you more information on this meeting at the beginning of the next week.
Meanwhile I hope that you enjoy our newsletter and spend a beautiful and enchanting weekend.
Warm regards,
Pascal
