If you can’t make it or want to see some of the commentary from our incredible panelists check out the thread below 👇
“Taking the justice approach to climate justice takes into consideration the foundation laid for us in the past - imperialism, colonialism... which we are still needing to right today and fight for justice for so many communities including Māori” - @indiamiro

‘We need to redefine how we define climate change progress, is progress for humanity - technology or is it actually going back to indigenous ways? I think we need to acknowledge that so many solutions exist in indigenous history and indigenous cultures already!’ - @Brianna_Fruean
‘Climate change is an injustice. So we fundamentally need justice and more importantly indigenous justice to begin to work together towards solutions’ - @SophieHandford2
‘Indigenous practices contribute to climate adaptation and climate mitigation in incredible ways. We’ve seen Indigenous communities help each other around the globe, from Africa to Samoa with indigenous solutions.’ - @Brianna_Fruean

‘We need a post-Covid green response: no subsidies or bail outs for polluters, try to put an end to fossil fuel subsidies, workers going into green jobs & sustainable fields in Aotearoa & the Pacific’ - @Brianna_Fruean
‘When we talk about climate change, we can’t not talk about racism. We have to ask ourselves seriously - Who’s land do we care about and who’s lives do we care about? Because for a long time it’s just been white people’s..’ - @Brianna_Fruean
