The session emphasized the urgent need to secure forest tenure as a means of safeguarding both Indigenous Peoples' (IPs) and Local Communities' (LCs) rights and the global environment. With approximately 3.3 billion individuals living within close proximity to forests, the issue of formal land rights for IPs and LCs—who customarily manage around 50% of the world's land—has become critical. Despite their vital stewardship role, only 10% of these lands are formally recognized, often due to overlapping claims with state-designated conservation areas.
