** Reporting on week two of COP28!
------------------------------------------------------------
Cultural Survival's delegation was on the ground at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC ([link removed]) ) Conference of Parties (COP 28 ([link removed]) ) in Dubai, UAE, until December 12. We organized four events, participated in several panels and discussions, interviewed dozens of Indigenous leaders, and followed the negotiations on matters important to the rights and futures of Indigenous Peoples. We are disappointed by the lack of concrete urgent action. Read our takeaways ([link removed]) below.
