Indigenous communities are among the most affected by climate change and nature loss and their contributions are essential in designing and implementing solutions to sustainable development. How are indigenous women leading these efforts in countries like Kenya and the Phillipines?

Executive Director of OPEN Giovanna Negretti speaks with indigenous women activists Abigail Kittman and Lucy Mulenkei on climate and nature activism led by indigenous and first nations women in the Phillipines and Kenya. The interviews were made possible thanks to the Human Rights in Conservation Team of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) with the Indigenous Forum on Biodiversity.
