ICA believes that “the leadership of Indigenous peoples, as stewards, caretakers and protectors of the earth, is crucial to achieving a climate stable future for all.” Consequently, it “inspires action through the development of tools and opportunities with the goal of uplifting Indigenous voices, sovereignty, and stewardship of the lands and waters for future generations.”
