Host Organisation:

AFPAT ASSOCIATION DES FEMMES PEUPLES ET PEUPLES AUTOCHTONES DU TCHAD

Description:

Participatory mapping bridges the gap between scientific data and the ancestral knowledge of Indigenous Peoples, creating powerful tools for climate action. By combining spatial technologies with traditional ecological understanding, these maps document land use, water sources, migration routes, and sacred sites—making invisible knowledge visible. This collaboration not only strengthens community resilience and land rights but also informs policies that integrate nature, culture, and science for effective climate adaptation and sustainable development. This event will help to chow case of Indigenous Communities to climate action
