Corrina Gould, Tribal Chair for the Confederated Villages of Lisjan Nation and a leading Indigenous activist, will discuss "Rematriation" at this year's conference. This practice involves reclaiming traditional land and sacred sites to rebuild cultures, heal colonial wounds, and prioritize women's unique role in this vital undertaking.

Gould co-founded Indian People Organizing for Change and the Sogorea Te’ Land Trust, an urban Indigenous women-led organization based in her ancestral territory (Oakland, CA). Through rematriation, cultural revitalization, and land restoration, the Land Trust calls on all people to heal and transform legacies of colonization.

This keynote was delivered at the 2024 Bioneers Conference. For more talks, visit Bioneers.

For 20 years, Amazon Watch has defended indigenous peoples' rights and territories, recognizing their vital role as guardians of rainforests that hold 80% of global biodiversity. These lands face severe threats from extractive industries, including oil, agribusiness, and mega-dams.

We partner with indigenous allies to establish "No Go Zones" and support initiatives like Sarayaku's Kawsak Sacha, or Living Forests, to keep oil in the ground. Our international market campaigns pressure corporations and governments, aiming to reduce demand for rainforest-destroying oil and expose financiers of harmful policies.

On April 8, 2024, CLG Europe’s Materials and Products Taskforce hosted a WCEF Side Event webinar: "How the new EU institutions can kickstart the Circular Economy." Ahead of European elections, experts discussed the circular economy's political role. A recent ESABCC report highlights minimal EU progress in circular material use, increasing from 10.8% (2010) to 11.7% (2021).

To meet the EU's 2030 goal of doubling this rate, a tenfold increase in current annual progress requires more recycling and less material demand. The Taskforce, established in 2021 to drive policy, will release a report later this year. It will set the EU's circular economy policy agenda for the next five years, recommending actions to accelerate the shift to climate-neutral materials.
