Who do you trust with our planet?

Join us for 10 days of land rights for nature at COP16

The Centrality of Land

Land provides us with the water, food, and natural resources that sustain all life.

It is the guarantor of biodiversity, health, resilience, and equitable and sustainable communities.

Whether or not we live from it directly or not, the fruits of our land are the building blocks of our collective future.

Who do you trust with our planet?

The most thriving places on earth belong to local communities, pastoralists, herders, and Indigenous Peoples.

Their traditional knowledge and communal know-how have the power to save ecosystems from destruction and restore forests, plains, and pastures.

We already have the tools to solve the most pressing issues of our time.
