The COP16 summit in Cali, Colombia, faced delays and ultimately failed to establish a funding roadmap for species protection, despite a strong global presence.
The conference, attended by 23,000 delegates from 200 countries, aimed to solidify financing to halt the deterioration of nature but could not resolve differences between rich and poor nations.
A significant achievement of the summit was the establishment of a permanent consultative body for Indigenous peoples, marking a historic step in environmental multilateral agreements.
Camila Romero remarked on the unprecedented recognition of Indigenous participation in environmental decisions, emphasizing the importance of their knowledge and traditional practices in addressing ecological issues.
