🌍 Join our first Prep Training for COP17 of the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD)

We are honored to invite Indigenous leaders, pastoralists, youth, and allies to the first of two virtual training sessions focused on the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) in preparation for the upcoming COP17.

Desertification, land degradation, and drought directly threaten the territories, ecosystems, and living heritage that Indigenous Peoples have protected for generations. This session is designed to sharpen the strategic engagement and advocacy of Indigenous Peoples within the UNCCD mechanisms, key decisions, and political opportunities.

This training also highlights the UN International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists (IYRP 2026), opening a critical window to center the rights and needs of pastoral and Indigenous Peoples globally.
