Representatives from the Global Environmental Facility -GEF- presented their plans for the implementation of the new Global Biodiversity Framework Fund (GBFF) established at COP15 last year. During the International Dialogue with Indigenous Peoples on the Implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework in Geneva, they revealed that there is no new mechanism to directly fund Indigenous-led or Indigenous-governed funds. Many Indigenous leaders have shared about the inefficiencies of the GEF system when it comes to access to funds for Indigenous Peoples.

Indigenous Peoples have known how to live on and take care of the land since times immemorial. We know that wherever you find cultural diversity, you will be sure to find biological diversity, in fact globally there are overlaps of areas rich in biodiversity with areas of cultural and linguistic diversity. These are the areas managed by Indigenous Peoples.

COP15 negotiations are underway in Montreal, and there will be many decisions made, each of these decisions made by member states will have a profound impact on Indigenous communities, and it's absolutely critical that these decisions center on a human rights-based approach and protect the rights of Indigenous Peoples; especially when it comes to area-based conservation, biodiversity conservation, fair and equitable benefit sharing from the use of genetic resources and the risk assessment of living modified organisms.

The evidence is indisputable, the areas occupied and managed by Indigenous Peoples span 24% of the global terrestrial surface, and they are home to 80% of the world’s remaining biodiversity.
