ABOUT
Since 2023, the Indigenous Peoples and Biodiversity Coalition Philippines has collaborated on a series of roundtable discussions towards working together to collectively strengthen coordination, advocacy and leadership of Indigenous peoples on biodiversity issues in the Philippines. This has led to the drafting of an Indigenous Peoples’ Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (IPBSAP) — a landmark document showcasing Indigenous Peoples’ targets, indicators, and commitments towards implementing the Philippine NBSAP and the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.
This side event aims to:
- To globally launch the Indigenous Peoples Biodiversity Action Plan (IPBSAP) and share the work of the Indigenous Peoples and Biodiversity Coalition Philippines leading to its drafting
- To identify challenges and opportunities with the IPBSAP and the Philippines’ NBSAP process for Indigenous peoples, Parties, supporting organizations and other relevant actors
- To share existing work to apply a human rights-based approach and whole-of-society approach to biodiversity conservation and sustainable use, particularly partnerships between government and indigenous peoples in the Philippines
