Global commitments must translate into action on the ground
At #COP17Armenia, bridging the gap between biodiversity targets and national action requires finance, technology, science and accountability.
ACBA calls for African CSO voices and community realities to shape decisions
The Subsidiary Body on Article 8(j) was established at COP16, a historic win for Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities. At COP17, its modus operandi is on the table. The question: will participation become co-creation? #COP17 #Article8j
ACBA members are on the ground in Yerevan, Armenia for #COP17 ready to ensure that African civil society voices are heard and shape decisions that affect our continent’s biodiversity and communities.
Our message is clear: Nothing about us without us!. #COP17 #AfricanCSOs
