Call for Climate Justice and Indigenous Wisdom - Youth Representative at the Summit of the Future

Niria Alicía Garcia, a Xicana human rights advocate from the United States, climate justice organizer, educator and storyteller, said her generation's hearts are breaking as it endures the impacts of climate disaster that could have been prevented.

“Our mother earth is hurting, and she needs our help. Worldwide our waters and sacred places are being desecrated. Corporate greed and war are pushing life to the verge of extinction. Global governments and politics are void of spirituality, of morality and basic respect for life,” she said.

Speaking about the Pact for the Future, she highlighted that while it mentions words like sustainable development nearly 300 times, words like children, Earth and future generations are mentioned less than 60 times.

“Do Indigenous Peoples still not exist to you? Are we not the stewards of 80 per cent of the world’s biodiversity?” she emphasised.

However, she concluded on a hopeful note, stating firmly, “make no mistake that we have the medicine that this world needs and that with the help of creation, we will turn the tide for good.”

-------------------------------

The Summit of the Future (22-23 September 2024) is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enhance cooperation on critical challenges and address gaps in global governance, reaffirm existing commitments including to the Sustainable Development Goals and the United Nations Charter, and move towards a reinvigorated multilateral system that is better positioned to positively impact people’s lives.

The Summit of the Future is a high-level event, bringing world leaders together to forge a new international consensus on how we deliver a better present and safeguard the future.

Effective global cooperation is increasingly critical to our survival but difficult to achieve in an atmosphere of mistrust, using outdated structures that no longer reflect today’s political and economic realities.

World leaders will convene at the United Nations to adopt the Pact for the Future, which will include a Global Digital Compact and a Declaration on Future Generations as annexes.

UN 🇺🇳 ! 😊
Letting go is often hard because we feel like what we’re losing is the best we could have ever had.

It can be extremely difficult to let go of certain things, even when we know it’s necessary. We feel that we won’t find a better person or be in a better situation than one we are letting go of.

Sometimes, we become so emotionally connected to a person or situation that we are unable to break free, even though we feel hurt. We keep thinking about why it happened and how things could have been different if we could have things the way we wanted. By holding on to such moments, experiences, or relationships, we only make our present difficult.

To move forward, we need to accept our situation and understand that although it may seem like we are losing the most loved thing, life surely will bring something even better. Trust that life will turn out better, we will be in an even better position, and find a person who knows how to value us 👏🏻😊
😊👏😊👏😊

Why do we feel powerful on the path of truth? 🤔

Being truthful gives us a sense of confidence because we know that we can do no better by choosing the righteous path.

Sometimes we are at a crossroad of decision making. The decisions we make can affect our entire life. The path of lies and deception often seems fascinating because it seems quick, profitable and easy but often ends in loss or instability whereas the path of truth is often difficult and challenging but makes us feel strong, and stable.

Although it may seem difficult, choose to live a true life. You may have less, you may not get quick success, but you will always feel at peace and powerful in yourself 👏🏻😊
😊👏😊👏😊
