The project aims to strengthen the climate resilience of Indigenous peoples in the Indo-Pacific through Indigenous-led climate action. Peer-to-peer learning between First Nations in Canada and abroad seeks to contribute to enhanced capacity to implement climate solutions for Indigenous peoples, in particular women and youth. The project equips Indigenous peoples to organize, strategize, and lead actions at the local, regional, and international levels that address climate change and biodiversity. Strengthened partnerships aim to increase the use of nature-based solutions. These solutions aim to benefit climate change adaptation and biodiversity conservation. The project centers the self-determined priorities and needs of Indigenous peoples.

The project aims to build on local partner Asia Indigenous Peoples Pact’s (AIPP) ongoing efforts to enhance knowledge-sharing and capacity-building among Indigenous peoples and their active participation in decision-making related to conservation and climate action. The project aligns with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous peoples.

Project activities include: (1) convening knowledge circles on indigenous knowledge systems and indigenous governance as climate and biodiversity solutions; (2) identifying guidelines and tools that enable indigenous communities to participate in and lead climate action; and (3) supporting peer-to-peer knowledge sharing workshops between First Nations women and youth and Indigenous women and youth from Thailand and Nepal to empower Indigenous women and promote their climate leadership.

April 2025 - Global food insecurity is rising at an increasing rate, exacerbated by conflict, climate change and rising inflation. Rigorous and reliable food security analysis is critical to ensuring humanitarian decision makers can use resources effectively.

Governments, United Nations agencies, non-governmental organizations, and civil society and humanitarian sector actors use the IPC’s classification and analytical approach to collaboratively determine the severity and magnitude of country-specific acute and chronic food insecurity and acute malnutrition. These determinations are made according to internationally-recognized evidence-based standards and using
