Organized by the SIRGE Coalition, this virtual roundtable will explore Indigenous self-determination. Leaders will discuss its historical journey, current challenges, and its link to collective rights, including Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC). They will also address practical steps for policymakers, states, and corporations to align with diverse global expressions of self-determination.

Additional topics include advancing self-determined priorities, overcoming challenges for self-determination's inclusion in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), and navigating autonomy within this framework.

Panelists are Carlos Mamani, Les Malezer, Dalee Sambo Dorough, and Elsa Stamatopoulou. Galina Angarova will moderate.

The global transition from fossil fuels to cleaner energy, including battery storage, is vital for environmental protection. However, this shift requires "transition minerals," whose extraction frequently causes new displacements and dispossession of Indigenous Peoples' territories.

This series aims to inform and educate Indigenous Peoples about their right to free, prior, and informed consent regarding minerals found on their lands.

Indigenous Peoples, led by Phil Lane Jr., spearheaded the largest climate change rally in Los Angeles history in February 2013. They marched thousands to LA City Hall, opened the event with traditional prayers, and delivered a strong message to President Obama.

The rally concluded with an "Idle No More - Protect the Sacred" Round Dance, during which an international treaty to protect sacred lands from Tar Sands projects was signed. Phil Lane Jr.'s leadership is further detailed in a video on EarthSayers.tv here, and his organization is the Four Worlds International Institute here.

Indigenous Peoples, comprising 5% of the global population, safeguard 80% of the world's biodiversity. This fact underscores their critical role as experts in resource management and climate action, yet their knowledge is often undervalued in institutional spaces.

To move beyond mere acknowledgment, we must center and strengthen Indigenous rights in climate initiatives. Indigenous Rights activist Jade Begay will share insights on the progress of Indigenous leadership and how to empower it—a necessity for planetary survival.

Indigenous Peoples face a new wave of extractivism for transition minerals like copper, nickel, cobalt, and lithium, crucial for battery development. These mining projects risk replicating the harms of the fossil fuel economy by threatening Indigenous rights, especially those of Indigenous women, and destroying biodiverse ecosystems. This panel will prioritize Indigenous women’s rights.

Speakers include Galina Angarova (Cultural Survival), Lesley Muñoz (Plurinational Observatory of Andean Salt Flats - OPSAL), Jannie Staffansson (Cultural Survival), Guadalupe García Prado (Observatory of Extractive Industries), and Kate R. Finn (First Peoples Worldwide).

Over 100 UK business and finance leaders, including CEOs from Amazon, Coca-Cola, and IKEA, have urged Prime Minister Liz Truss to strengthen the economy by prioritizing climate and nature crises. Amid inflation and recession warnings, they advocate for building economic resilience through net-zero delivery and nature restoration.

A letter from 116 institutions emphasizes urgent government plans to accelerate the energy transition. This could significantly reduce household energy bills, improve energy security, and shield the UK from volatile fossil fuel prices.
