Indigenous people comprise just 4% of world population, but they control 22% of the land on Earth. In their territories, 80% of the planet’s remaining biodiversity has been preserved. Our sacred site reports tell inspiring stories of how indigenous worldviews and values protect biodiversity for us all — and for future generations.
