COP28 - The Poorest Of The Poor In Burundi Are Hit Hard!
from Indigenous Rights Radio · host Cultural Survival
The Batwa Indigenous Peoples, who live in remote areas in Burundi, are considered to be the poorest of the poor. They rely on hunting and gathering for their survival, and are disproportionately affected by climate change. However, they possess knowledge and expertise that can help mitigate the effects of climate change. The government and international communities must recognize this and put Indigenous Peoples at the center of climate change initiatives. By doing so, they can tap into the potential of Indigenous Peoples and empower them to be an effective solution to the issue of climate change.
