We were very fortunate at Incomindios to be able to sponsor Dr Sandra Cellabos to attend the COP28 summit in Dubai. Whilst there, she collaborated with Incomindios to host and moderate a side event, organised by the AMAI (Association of Indigenous Women Lawyers) on the 6th December 2023.
Titled ‘“Nothing without us” – The right to consultation and consent of Indigenous Peoples’, the panel hosted a number of wonderful luminaries who gave their opinions on the topic at hand, alongside other pertinent issues.
