Food sovereignty is climate resilience.

Climate-related disasters threaten Indigenous Peoples’ food systems, livelihoods, and access to food. Yet Indigenous Peoples are already adapting agricultural practices and strengthening community-led responses rooted in their knowledge and governance systems.

Land is Life’s report, The Systems Behind the Solutions, highlights why protecting territories, supporting Indigenous-led solutions, and ensuring access to flexible climate finance are essential to building resilience.
Food sovereignty begins with Indigenous Peoples’ rights to their lands, knowledge, and self-determination.
