As climate disruption and a crisis of democracy challenge our world, Bioneers provides a vital platform. For over three decades, we've fostered a "movement of movements," uniting people around authentic "solve-the-whole problem" solutions. We believe in regeneration over nihilism, wholeness over shattering.

Especially in these times, we invite you to join the Bioneers community. Learn more and register at https://conference.bioneers.org/.

Indigenous Peoples already lead in "green jobs," integrating cultural values and protecting 80% of global biodiversity. Transforming economies through Indigenous-led solutions requires uplifting

Indigenous Peoples already lead in "green jobs," integrating cultural values and protecting 80% of global biodiversity. Transforming economies through Indigenous-led solutions requires uplifting these movements and stories, necessitating a shift in philanthropy and "impact investing" from privileged circles.

In this panel, Sikowis (Plains Cree/Saulteaux), Nick Estes (Lower Brule Sioux Tribe), and Alexis Bunten (Unangan/Yupik) explore colonial-capitalism. They discuss how Indigenous-led strategies offer a pathway toward an equitable and regenerative future.

Indigenous communities are vital guardians of Earth's biodiversity, safeguarding 80% of what remains globally. Their traditional knowledge and ancestral ownership of vast areas, including nearly half of the Amazon's intact forests, are crucial for mitigating the climate crisis, as these biodiverse regions serve as major carbon sinks. Respecting Indigenous peoples' internationally recognized rights is paramount for protecting our planet's most important rainforests, climate, and life.

Nemonte Nenquimo, a Waorani leader and co-founder of Ceibo Alliance and Amazon Frontlines, champions this cause. Named one of Time's 100 most influential people and a Goldman Environmental Prize winner, she fights against oil drilling on ancestral lands.

Growing concern about beef's environmental impact faces political backlash, driving new climate commitments. Food and climate experts will discuss the climate science of beef, exploring effective solutions, regenerative practices, and emission reduction strategies. They will also examine carbon markets, consumer awareness, and how cultural factors influence the debate.

Renowned experts Dr. Jonathan Foley (Project Drawdown), Dr. Matthew Hayek (NYU), and Dr. Silvia Secchi (University of Iowa) will lead this discussion. Sign up for our Food X e-newsletter: https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/population_and_sustainability/food-x/

Indigenous Peoples integrate cultural values into business, protecting 80% of global biodiversity through "green jobs." To foster an equitable, regenerative future, we must uplift Indigenous-led solutions and transform philanthropy, moving beyond colonial-capitalism.

This panel explores these strategies with Sikowis (Great Plains Action Society) and Dr. Nick Estes (The Red Nation), hosted by Alexis Bunten (Bioneers Indigeneity Program).

Stand with the San Carlos Apache Nation to protect Oak Flat campground, a sacred Apache site in central Arizona's Tonto National Forest.

Stand with the San Carlos Apache Nation to protect Oak Flat campground, a sacred Apache site in central Arizona's Tonto National Forest. Mining giant Rio Tinto's plans for a massive copper mine threaten to devastate this vital area.

The proposed mine would create a depression the size of the Winslow meteor crater, drain the aquifer, and destroy essential streams, springs, and wildlife habitat. Despite being formally withdrawn from mining by presidential order 50 years ago, a recent congressional land swap grants Rio Tinto private control, allowing them to bypass environmental protections.

Amed Jkoghlaf, Executive Secretary of the Convention on Biological Diversity, emphasizes the critical importance of biodiversity. He warns that its rapid loss, occurring at an unprecedented pace globally and locally, poses a severe threat to our environment, economies, cultures, and societies.

This degradation fundamentally alters our self-perception and place in the world. Human impact on biodiversity, ecosystems, and climate continues to grow, yet the complex and diverse services flowing from biodiversity are often unknown and undervalued.
