They face intersecting challenges due to their gender and Indigenous identity, enduring various forms of discrimination.As we look forward to COP16 and discussions surrounding the Global Biodiversity Framework, it becomes increasingly pertinent to amplify the voices of Indigenous women who uphold ancestral wisdom and play a vital role in preserving the world's biodiversity.
