The use of geospatial data and technologies can support Indigenous youth and help strengthen their role as agents of change in their communities to protect their environment, biodiversity and preserve their cultural identity and traditions. In line with this year’s International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples’ theme, ‘Indigenous Youth as Agents of Change for Self-determination,’ Global Forest Watch and the Geo Indigenous Alliance held a virtual discussion with a panel of young, Indigenous women leaders from Latin America. Our speakers shared their stories and perspectives on the role of youth in land and forest protection, how geospatial data and technologies can help support community rights to self-determination and collective management of resources, and they also shared challenges and opportunities to develop solutions that address their needs and those of their communities. This event was hosted in Spanish with simultaneous interpretation to English.
