I had an absolutely wonderful evening with @SitiNurbayaLHK to extend my congratulations for the new climate partnership between Indonesia and Norway announced at @COP28_UAE.
Indonesia's leadership on reducing emissions from deforestation is a model other countries can follow.

Excellent news & an important victory for the ongoing defense of Indigenous rights in Brazil! President Lula’s decision to issue this veto (albeit partial) is significant not only for Indigenous Peoples of Brazil, but for the protection of the Amazon - vital to the entire world.
Vetei hoje vários artigos do Projeto de Lei 2903/2023, ao lado da ministra @GuajajaraSonia e dos ministros @padilhando e @jorgemessiasagu, de acordo com a decisão do Supremo sobre o tema. Vamos dialogar e seguir trabalhando para que tenhamos, como temos hoje, segurança jurídica e também para termos respeito aos direitos dos povos originários.

This is an important new piece of the architecture for financing forest conservation in DRC, adding to the growing push to channel more funds into the hands of people living closest to the forest. Piloting now, great opportunities to scale in the coming years.
WCS and @RainforestNORW are launching the first-ever direct access fund for Indigenous Peoples and local communities protecting DRC’s forests. The initiative will help secure land and resource rights and protect a critical tropical rainforest. bit.ly/3PLROn6 #ClimateWeek
