- 1 Environmental Sustainability: Action to address the Triple Planetary Crisis and Adaption of the IN to CB-NRM:
The Indigenous Navigator must urgently strengthen its focus on the rights, roles and responsibilities of IPs in action on climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution issues. This is both a moral and existential imperative, as well as a strategic move to elevate the status and rights of IPs, especially security of land and resource rights, which are a pre-requisite for sustainable management of IP lands.
In particular there is an urgent need for more and better documented community-based natural resource management (CB-NRM) projects that can demonstrate the ability of IPs to effectively and sustainably manage their customary lands and protect the biodiversity, ecosystem carbon and other environmental goods and services. The IN partners already have access to a wealth of knowledge and experience regarding indigenous ecological knowledge, environmental stewardship and CB-NRM, but this is not necessarily well documented or supported by rigorous MEL methodologies or externally credible data.
The next iteration of the IN project, or a complementary project or study, should entail a comprehensive review of internal and external resources relating to indigenous ecological knowledge and CB-NRM, with the aim of identifying and promoting best-practices and tools for planning, implementing, monitoring, evaluating and documenting CB-NRM activities. This would be highly useful both to guide CB-NRM activities supported by the IN project, as well as to guide the development of new data collecting methods and tools to more effectively monitor, evaluate and document CB-NRM activities based on credible, community generated data.
