🌍 Indigenous voices and robust Nationally Determined Contributions are central to effective #ClimateAction.
At #COP29, I explored how Indigenous knowledge can transform NDCs into equitable and context-sensitive climate policies. Read my reflections here: www.girton.cam.ac.uk/news/cop29-i....

It was wonderful to share my views of #COP29 with a very engaged audience. I believe we need to work much more on #ClimateLiteracy and #CapacityBuilding to ensure all voices are heard and ensure there is a proper understanding of what it all means.
The NDCs are the most important element of the Paris Agreement and their update will be crucial and the Baku workplan can bring indigenous voices into the process says Dr @antoinettenestor.bsky.social at University of Cambridge report back from COP29

I had a radio interview with BBC Radio Cambridgeshire a few days upon arriving to Baku #COP29.
We discussed how outcomes will impact both local policy and my research.
