Dear Friend,
Next week the world will come together once more in meetings on biodiversity, traditional knowledge, climate change, and other urgent themes. Indigenous Poeples are playing an increasingly important role in all those fields. The world must listen to its Indigenous Peoples, because they have solutions, and they are willing to contribute them.
I wish you a beautiful week-end and I'm looking forward to meet you - virtually - in next week's meetings.
Warm regards,
Pascal
