Indigenous cultures and traditional knowledge systems have cultivated respectful and reciprocal relationships with the natural living world since time immemorial. Modern science has started to acknowledge Indigenous expertise to tackle climate change, and develop strategies for mitigation and adaptation. Thus centering Indigenous voices is an essential part towards building a resilient and equitable future. On the other hand, there is a need to modernise international law to reflect the urgency of our times. The recognition of ecocide as an international crime is a key missing piece to create a legal and moral parameter to protect the living world. Momentum for the criminalisation of mass damage and destruction to nature -ecocide- has been growing over the past few years, and it is becoming an obvious and necessary demand across all sectors of society. This event brings these two worlds into conversation, exploring how they both address the roots of the global climate and ecological crisis, and offer solutions and insights towards a more harmonious relationship with nature. The format of the event -a sharing circle with an outer circle of listeners- fosters deep listening and bearing witness, while allowing open participation and inclusion of all voices present.
