Derechos de los Pueblos Indígenas y comunidades locales para garantizar el bienestar de los bosques y la biodiversidad

This policy brief by Friends of the Earth International argues that forests managed by Indigenous Peoples and local communities (PICL) are essential for biodiversity conservation and climate justice, but are threatened by extractive industries and exclusionary conservation models due to a lack of supportive public policies.

• Forests managed traditionally within territories controlled by Indigenous Peoples and local communities (PICL) are critical for preventing biodiversity extinction and supporting climate justice struggles.
• Territories controlled by PICL face constant threats from mining, logging, subsurface exploitation, and conservation schemes that displace people, often because public policies fail to recognize the importance of PICL forest management or respect their collective rights.
• The document's analysis and recommendations focus on Territories and Conservation Areas Conserved by Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (TICCA), Community Forest Management, and essential rights including self-determination, autonomy, decision-making participation, land and territory, ecosystem restoration, traditional knowledge protection, the right to well-being, and gender justice.
