This involves empowering indigenous communities in decision-making and territorial governance, safeguarding cultural heritage, and utilizing traditional methods for carbon sequestration efforts. By adopting this collaborative method, the alliance seeks to strengthen conservation endeavors, bolster the resilience of coastal communities, and support global carbon mitigation strategies, all in accordance with the Decade of the Oceans objectives.
