The Indegenous was invited to speak in the side preparation event at Stockholm +50 for "Achieving a healthy planet for all through a gender-just recovery." The event emphasized gender equality as a critical component of global environmental action and the goals of a better post-COVID future.
The Stockholm +50 event presented a chance to draft a multilateral environmental action plan for the next 50 years in order to build a brighter future for a healthy planet. Stockholm+50 had the engagement of youth and indigenous peoples, and local communities (IPLCs). Indigenous peoples and local communities are directly impacted by climate change. They own at least a quarter of the planet's land, making them the first group to experience the effects of ecological change. As a result, including Indigenous youth, people, and local communities in decision-making and planning initiatives at Stockholm +50 was crucial.
We added the following paragraphs to the Declaration. That indigenous peoples are the guards of biodiversity of the world and stand in solidarity with our Indigenous Peoples and Nations to call upon States, United Nations agencies, intergovernmental development organizations, international financial institutions including public and private and civil society partners to:
1. Respect the crucial role of languages, knowledge and cultural heritage in the economic development of Indigenous Peoples, as well as our entrepreneurship role for the enjoyment of our rights to culture, language and scientific knowledge.
