Inclusion and Just Transition over Business as Usual in the Energy Shift
The world’s transition minerals and renewable energy potential lies on Indigenous lands. Historically, mining and many large-scale development projects, including renewable energy projects had devastating effects on their lands and have resulted in numerous human rights violations.
Ourgoals
To convene Indigenous Peoples and key partners to discuss the barriers, enabling conditions and positive experiences of co-ownership models and benefit-sharing agreements for the just energy transition, in particular in relation to renewable energy projects.
To reach agreements on the principles, strategies and actions needed to build on the positive experiences of Indigenous Peoples with co-ownership and equity models and expand these at the global level.
To engage governments, businesses and investors, philanthropists, and inter-governmental organizations regarding key actions and commitments for the future of the just energy transition.
