Resilience Rooted in Tradition: Integrating Indigenous and Local Knowledge in Adaptation and Loss & Damage Solutions

16 November @ 1:30 pm2:30 pm +04

The interactive session will foreground the importance of incorporating Indigenous and local wisdom in decision-making on climate adaptation and loss & damage through voices from the Global South. It will explore the diverse perspectives on knowledge, how different knowledge types can be meaningfully integrated, and how we can assess the effectiveness of these efforts in relation to the 1st, 2nd and 5th LLA principles, ecosystem-based adaptation as well as in responding to loss and damage. It will also provide insights on how intensifying climate change has impacted indigenous approaches to resilience, and ultimately, how indigenous knowledge can set the agenda for resilience building, peace with nature, and better impact response rather than feeding into planning processes as a secondary input.
