Minga Indigena and Indigenous Communities at COP26

Lodged by Ross Greer (Scottish Green Party) Standard Motion 15 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament welcomes the efforts made by Minga Indigena to bring the experience and knowledge of indigenous leaders to Scotland during COP26, as with previous UN climate conferences; recognises that indigenous communities play an important role as stewards of a high proportion of the planet's most important ecosystems; notes that many indigenous communities are on the front line of the climate crisis and already experiencing its gravest impacts; understands that efforts to find accommodation for indigenous leaders at COP26 have so far been unsuccessful, and urges anyone with suitable space to make contact with Minga Indigena as a matter of urgency.
