WATCH | Decolonizing Climate Policy 2.1 Launch at COP28 Indigenous Peoples Pavilion

Climate policy is failing. Colonial approaches to policy and policymaking continue to block Indigenous peoples from taking action on issues directly impacting their lands and communities. Indigenous Climate Action (ICA) is looking at ways to address challenges in climate policy through its Decolonizing Climate Policy Project.

While on the ground at COP28 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, ICA released Part 1 of our Phase 2 report on Decolonizing Climate Policy at the Indigenous Peoples Pavilion. The event featured a diverse group of Indigenous climate leaders who dove into the concept of decolonizing climate policy and shared their perspectives on its significance in so-called Canada.

Speakers:

• Eriel Tchekwie Deranger, Executive Director, Indigenous Climate Action

• Carole Monture, Climate Leadership Coordinator, Indigenous Climate Action

• Britney Supernault, Cree Nomad, East Prairie Metis Settlement

• Jayce Chiblow, Education and Training Manager, Indigenous Climate Action

• Callie Davies-Flett, Regulatory Advisor, Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation
