\u201cWe are the guardians of the planet for the healing of the earth.\u201d With this motto, Indigenous women are reaffirming their essential role in the global climate agenda and articulating a unified message to take to COP30, the United Nations climate conference taking place in Bel\u00e9m, Brazil, this November.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The statement was released during the National March of Indigenous Women, held in Bras\u00edlia in early August, and seeks to draw attention to the disproportionate<\/a> effects of extreme weather on women and girls, especially those of Indigenous origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As guardians<\/a> of biodiversity who are also responsible for caring for their families, communities and territories, women are the first to feel<\/a> the impacts, which range from food insecurity and economic hardship to increased violence and work overload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWomen are always more affected by climate change,\u201d Dal\u00ed Angel, project coordinator for the Fund for the Development of Indigenous Peoples in Latin America and the Caribbean (Filac), told Dialogue Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nayra Kaxuyana, international advisor to Brazil\u2019s Ministry of Indigenous Peoples, added that one of the main demands that women bring to the federal agency is for support in building seed houses: \u201cMany of the seeds we have today in the territories are no longer adapted to the climate,\u201d she told Dialogue Earth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The United Nations has highlighted<\/a> that Indigenous women, by preserving seeds, protecting pollinators, fertilising soil with organic methods, and helping to keep forests intact, are at the forefront of environmental conservation. For this reason, the agency recognises that their participation in decision-making is crucial for recovery and adaptation in the face of climate extremes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are the ones who think about the process of resilience within the territories,\u201d said Alana Manchineri, international advisor to the Coordination of Indigenous Organizations of the Brazilian Amazon (Coiab). \u201cWe are the ones who know all the medicinal plants, who pass on our knowledge to our children and who forge new leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Record-breaking Indigenous delegation <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Taking place in the Amazon, COP30 aims to bring together the largest Indigenous delegation<\/a> in history. According to Brazil\u2019s minister for Indigenous peoples, Sonia Guajajara, the goal is to secure accreditation for at least 1,000 Indigenous people in the Blue Zone, the official space where negotiations between governments and international delegations take place. To date, according to Guajajara, the largest participations were recorded at COP21 in Paris and COP28 in Dubai, which each had around 350 Indigenous representatives from across the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent months, the COP30 presidency has announced initiatives to strengthen the participation at the event of traditional peoples, a category that in Brazil includes Indigenous communities and others, including quilombola people. These include the Indigenous Peoples\u2019 Circle<\/a>, an official forum for dialogue with leaders; the COP Village<\/a>, a camp that is expected to receive 3,000 Indigenous people in Bel\u00e9m; and training<\/a> aimed primarily at women from traditional communities and organisations so that they can participate in international discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, for Indigenous women, getting to Bel\u00e9m will only be the first step. Filac\u2019s Angel explains that \u201ceven when women manage to get to where the conference is being held, it is the men [Indigenous as well as non-Indigenous] who are able to access the Blue Zone\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>
Recommended<\/span><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n

According to Angel, it is therefore essential to ensure the accreditation of Indigenous women, as well as Indigenous men. But the process, she says, is demanding and time-consuming. For this reason, the alternative has been to register them as guests of partner organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey are deciding our future behind closed doors, where our voice is not included,\u201d added Nansend\u00e1lia Ramirez, a Mexican member of the Global Alliance of Territorial Communities, speaking at the first National Conference of Indigenous Women, which took place alongside the march in Bras\u00edlia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indigenous diplomacy with voices of women<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For about a year, representatives of Indigenous people from across Latin America and the Caribbean have been organising to arrive at COP30 in a stronger position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This movement gained momentum after Brazil\u2019s nationally determined contribution (NDC) to the Paris Agreement \u2013 the climate action plan every UN member state must submit every five years \u2013 presented at the end of 2024<\/a> was widely regarded as insufficient. \u201cWhen we had access to the text and realised that Indigenous peoples are rarely mentioned, we thought: this is wrong,\u201d said Coiab\u2019s Manchineri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/div>
Alana Manchineri, international advisor to Coiab, noted that the Brazilian Indigenous movement presented its own Nationally Determined Contribution, with specific proposals and demands, in response to the official NDC which hardly mentioned Indigenous people (Image: Amanda Magnani)<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In response, the Brazilian Indigenous movement presented its own NDC<\/a>, with specific proposals and demands. Although unofficial and national in scope, the document reflects common agendas of Indigenous peoples around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two demands stand out: that states recognise the Indigenous contribution to mitigating the climate crisis, including the demarcation of territories in their NDCs; and that Indigenous organisations have direct access to climate resources \u2013 of which they currently receive only 1%<\/a> \u2013 without relying on intermediaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are denied this access on the grounds that we lack technical capacity and human resources,\u201d said Angel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You cannot talk about health, food sovereignty or quality of life without talking about territory<\/blockquote>Dal\u00ed Angel, project coordinator for the Fund for the Development of Indigenous Peoples in Latin America and the Caribbean<\/cite><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For her, the setbacks in the rights of women, children and Indigenous people make it even more urgent to arrive in Bel\u00e9m with a solid and unified agenda. This mobilisation, she added, goes beyond Latin America and the Caribbean and has reached other sociocultural regions where women Indigenous leaders are now articulating their own agendas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe challenge is to come together to build a common agenda for all of us,\u201d she said.  This coordination has materialised in different spaces. At the COP16 biodiversity conference in Colombia last year, the Indigenous Amazon G9<\/a> was created, a coalition of organisations from the nine Amazon countries. Then in April, at the Free Land Camp, a gathering that brought together 6,000 Indigenous people in Bras\u00edlia, representatives from the Amazon, the Pacific Islands and Australia issued a joint statement<\/a> on COP30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, the Indigenous women\u2019s conference in August ended with the Charter for Life and for Territories<\/a>, which calls for funds for territorial management and tackling the climate crisis, with women at the forefront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The text also reinforces the centrality of land in the Indigenous struggle: \u201cOur bodies are territory. Our territory is sacred. We will remain organised, mobilised and fighting for justice, wellbeing and the continuity of life on the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Indigenous women, every debate begins with territory. \u201cYou cannot talk about health, food sovereignty or quality of life without talking about territory,\u201d said Angel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manchineri added: \u201cFor us, it is very clear: when our territories are violated, so are all our other rights.\u201d During the August conference, leaders denounced the worsening violence in their lands, linked to the lack of demarcation and the expansion of exploratory ventures. Manchineri pointed out that increases in illegal mining activity in Brazil mainly affect women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have a high rate of pregnant women with high levels of mercury,\u201d she said. \u201cOften, they cannot even breastfeed their children because mercury is present in breast milk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studies conducted by health research institute Fiocruz in Par\u00e1, the northern Brazilian state where Bel\u00e9m is located, have confirmed<\/a> this: pregnant women and children living along the Tapaj\u00f3s River basin and Indigenous people in the Munduruku territory recorded mercury levels above World Health Organization limits as a result of mining activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the village to the COP \u2013 and back to the village<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Faced with countless obstacles, Indigenous women have mobilised to increase their presence and ensure their voices are heard in formal negotiations at COP30. \u201cFor women who are mothers, we have sought support so that their partners can accompany them to take care of the children while they participate in the events,\u201d said Manchineri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have to fight against the entire patriarchal system and even against the discrimination that exists within our territories,\u201d added Ramirez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manchineri explained that their strategy is twofold: to bring what is discussed in the territories to the international table and then, on their return, to present the decisions and progress made in an accessible way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To support this strategy, leaders have organised their own workshops and preparatory meetings \u2013 the pre-COPs<\/a> \u2013 in addition to the training provided by the COP presidency. The idea is to help build knowledge within the communities about what the conferences are and how they work, and ultimately build a common agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe need to arrive empowered, with tools that allow us to have a greater impact in the negotiation spaces,\u201d said Angel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
