Aura Tegría Cristancho, a 26-year-old indigenous lawyer from Colombia's U'wa Nation, has been the legal advisor to the U'wa Association of Traditional Authorities and Councils (ASOU'WA) since late 2013.

In September 2017, Aura toured the U.S., sharing the U'wa message of respecting Mother Earth and their generational fight to protect ancestral lands from oil drilling and resource extraction.

Aura emphasizes the U'wa belief that the world is a house supported by vital pillars. She urges non-indigenous people to abandon greed and protect Mother Earth, warning that once her "blood" (oil) is gone, no wealth can restore nature's harmony. Learn more at amazonwatch.org.

ITU standards are fundamental to global connectivity. An estimated 95% of international data traffic, traversing 1.4 million kilometers of submarine cables, adheres to these standards. This framework has also enabled optical network capacity to grow by an average of 40% annually over the last four decades, at viable costs.

Contribute to the future of network standardization. Join [ITU-T Study Group 15](https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/about/groups/Pages/sg15.aspx) to help shape standards for transport, access, and home networks, technologies, and infrastructures.
