Better Climate Finance Means Centering Local and Indigenous Communities

In recent years, a consensus has formed that addressing the interlinked crises of climate and biodiversity requires supporting the land rights and environmental stewardship of Indigenous Peoples and other local rural communities who live alongside and depend on natural resources. of them for their livelihood.

At least 50 percent of the planet’s land surface is owned, used or managed by indigenous peoples and local communities (IPLCs), and 36 percent of all intact forests are on recognized indigenous lands.

Twenty-five percent of the entire Amazon basin lies on legally recognized Indigenous Territories, which are generally better protected than even government parks and reserves. Around the world, Indigenous Territories and other community lands contribute approximately an equivalent land area to all formally protected parks and reserves.

For this reason, when the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) formulated new targets to protect 30 percent of the world’s land, inland waters, coastal and marine areas by 2030, it placed unprecedented emphasis on the importance of recognize and respect indigenous and traditional communities. territories, including specific wording on the recognition of indigenous and traditional territories and respect for indigenous and community land rights.

Yet despite this consensus, the Rainforest Foundation Norway showed, in 2021, that efforts to recognize indigenous land rights and support the conservation of their forests were getting less than 1 percent of all climate funding, and the vast majority of funds went to international or development organizations. contractors

There are signs that this is changing. At the 2021 UN climate summit, a group of 17 funders pledged $1.7 billion to support indigenous land rights and forest tenure, building on part of an earlier $5 billion “Protecting the Planet” pledge made. by another set of funders for conservation efforts. (which also emphasized the importance of indigenous and community conservation practices and models).

Public funding agencies, such as the Global Environment Facility and USAID, are also expressing their own intentions to get more climate and biodiversity funding for local, community and indigenous organizations.

Yet as attention grows on the challenge of getting funding to indigenous and local groups that can really make a difference on the ground, progress remains slow: in a review one year after the $1.7K pledge million in Glasgow, donors reported that only about 7 percent of that funding went directly to indigenous communities.

The lack of funding for local and community organizations is not new. Less than 5 percent of total international humanitarian funding goes to local organizations and, for example, research by the Bridgespan Group shows that African organizations get only about 11 percent of all philanthropic funding invested in Africa.

Even less support has reached women rights holders, despite women’s essential role in forest management and their exclusion from many governance structures. The same is true of Afro-descendant groups in Latin America who routinely manage more than 145 million hectares of land important for climate and conservation in 16 countries.
