A Chance to Speak, A Chance to Listen

Indigenous peoples contribute very little to the underlying causes of climate change. Instead they have a lot to offer humanity at this time. Yet many are now being severely impacted by erratic weather, flooding and drought. In this short film, indigenous peoples from a variety of tribal and indigenous groups across Indonesia and the Philippines offer their messages to policy makers.

Eyes on the Kampar Peninsula

The Kampar Peninsula is 700,000 hectares of peatland up to 15 metres deep, on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. The peat contains more than 2 billion tonnes of carbon. All eyes are on the Kampar: loggers, carbon traders, and plantation companies. But where does this leave the Akit and Melayu indigenous peoples who inhabit the peninsula?

REDD: A New Animal in the Forest

REDD (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation), is a climate change mitigation measure that seeks to reduce GHG emissions by preventing or reducing forest loss and forest degradation. Indigenous peoples living in these forests have urgent messages about REDD, its potential opportunities, and the risks of failure if indigenous peoples rights, and their traditional knowledge and practices are not recognised.
