The report describes status and trends on key biotic elements in the terrestrial Arctic. It is based on Arctic Terrestrial Biodiversity Monitoring Plan and provides an important milestone towards its implementation. CBMP (Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Program) is the core programme of the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna Working Group (CAFF) of the Arctic Council.

This paper elucidates the indigenous traditional knowledge of wild plants usage by Khasi people (ethnic group) of Nongkhyllem Reserve Forest, Nongpoh, Meghalaya, India.

Fishing technique described in this paper is practiced around Bargi Reservoir. Five types of crafts and different gears were encountered during the two years of seasonal survey.

The study conducted revealed the Ethnobotanical study on wild edible fruits, spices and aquatic plants traditionally used by the Garo tribe of Meghalaya

The document summarizes the report that, based on a review of more than 250 studies, demonstrates the importance and urgency of climate action to protect the forests of the indigenous and tribal territories of Latin America as well as the indigenous and tribal peoples who protect them. These territories contain about a third of the continent's forests. That's 14% of the carbon stored in tropical forests around the world; These territories are also home to an enormous diversity of wild fauna and flora and play a key role in stabilizing the local and regional climate.

This technique is great in dry, hot climate – there’s no water wastage through run-off and evaporation, the water goes exactly where it’s needed, and the risk of fungal issues on foliage is significantly reduced due to the foliage not being wet during a watering. The burying of the olla in the soil also promotes deeper roots systems that are better able to manage fluctuations in heat.

The brief highlights the initiative of The Institute of Natural Medicine and Complementary Therapies in reviving traditional ancestral medicine among Indigenous Peoples and Afro-descendants in Nicaragua.

The text discusses the adoption and definition of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) for addressing societal and environmental challenges, its growing popularity and criticism for potential greenwashing, as well as the Green Climate Fund's development of sector guides to guide investments in impactful areas.

The book provides a comprehensive and geographically based overview of the challenges citizenship education faces in a rapidly changing global world through the lens of diversity and inclusiveness.

This policy brief was prepared following the momentous UNFCCC Conference of the Parties (COP25) outcome in which Parties adopted a two-year workplan for the Local Communities and Indigenous Peoples’ Platform (LCIPP). The adoption of the workplan recognizes the important role and contribution of indigenous peoples as partners and agents for change, equipped with traditional knowledge, customs, and solutions in mitigating and adapting to climate change. As Parties prepare for COP26 including the task of enhancing their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), this policy brief highlights water-related insights and solutions emanating from indigenous communities in our global response to climate change.
