For centuries, we have known how to grow food without taking more than the land can give.
The milpa is not a technique. It is how we Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities understand our relationship with the territory, everything connected, nothing wasted, seeds carried forward by our hands across generations.

The answers were never missing. They were always here. 🌽

The sea has its own rhythm. We learned to follow it.

For generations, we Indigenous Peoples across eastern Indonesia, have governed our waters through customary systems. Not as a conservation strategy, but as a way of life. Today, that knowledge is what's keeping our marine ecosystems alive.

Our territories hold the answers the world is still looking for. 🌊

Our territories are recognized. Our livelihoods are still under threat.

For decades, we have fought for (and won) historic rights over our territories. But recognition alone has never been enough. Without the policies, financing, and protection our communities deserve, those rights remain incomplete.

We already have the models. We already have the knowledge. What we need is for the systems around us to change.

Our livelihoods have never been just about income.

They are territory, knowledge, culture, governance, and community, woven together like the threads of a basket. Pull one out, and everything unravels. Keep them together, and they sustain life across generations.

This is what our economies have always looked like. And this is what we continue to defend. 🌿

For nearly 20 years, Indonesia has been debating a law to legally recognize Indigenous Peoples and their territories. Our member organization AMAN, is demanding that recognition stop being conditional and start being a right.

This is not only Indonesia's story. It's the story of Indigenous Peoples everywhere whose our existence should never depend on a state's permission.

We stand with AMAN. 🌿

continue pushing for what real climate justice requires: participation, protection, recognition, and decision-making power ✊🏽
COP4 Escazú moved important conversations forward: environmental justice, transparency, gender inclusion, and the roadmap toward COP5 🌎⚖️
But what comes next matters 👀
Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities must be part of the spaces where decisions are made, while land defenders need real protection against violence, persecution, and criminalization 🛖🕊️
Because climate justice depends on those who protect life being able to shape its future 🌱

Some of our most powerful systems were never written down. They live in us, in how we read the river, how we decide together, how we pass what we know to the next generation and maybe other community that needs it 🌊

Traditional Knowledge is not history. It is how we navigate, protect, and transform our territories today.

The next five years will shape the future of the Amazon. We must act urgently to protect territories, strengthen Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities’ leadership, and prevent irreversible damage. ✊🏾🌍

What made Santa Marta different from other climate conferences?

⚡Focus on how, not if. Moving beyond debate and into implementation.

🔓 No veto power. A coalition of the willing. No lowest-common-denominator outcomes.

🗣️ Real dialogue. No rigid rules. Diplomats, scientists, and Indigenous leaders speaking directly.

Santa Marta showed what is possible: power can shift, rules can change, and our demands can move to the center. 💥

A few days ago, we wrapped up our participation at the 25th session of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Peoples Issues in New York.

As GATC, we engaged in dialogue with governments, donors, and partners about what it takes to move climate commitments from paper to territory.

Swipe to see where we were and what we fought for. 🌎
