Statement delivered by Sheelah Bearfoot.
Madam. President and Parties.
Indigenous Peoples from the seven socio-cultural regions wish to condemn the unethical methods and even more unethical outcomes this COP has produced. There is nothing to celebrate here today. As Peoples, as Sovereign Nations, we join the several other Nations that have voiced their vehement objections to these unacceptable decisions that are continuing to destroy our planet.

Indigenous Peoples have long participated in international gatherings, often bearing witness to how the lack of leadership, vision, and decisive action perpetuates injustices and exacerbates the multiple crises facing the world. The G20 Summit is no exception.
While climate change will center around carbon markets and technological and investment solutions, the CBD COP16 made clear emphasis on the central role of Indigenous Peoples and local communities in the implementation of the Kunming Montreal Biodiversity Framework.
