Opening
Details
As a delegation of wisdom keepers from all around the globe, we intend to share prayer, song, and ceremony from our various cultures with the audience. The idea is to start COP28 off with an inclusive, receptive mindset.
As Indigenous practices and beliefs are frequently exotified and bastardized within climate/environmental justice spaces to cater to a setter gaze, sharing our real, authentic expressions of who we are is imperative to start off climate justice discussions and negotiations.
