"What is narrative sovereignty? It's the ability to rewrite the truths of history and reclaim the truths of history and manifest what the story of the future will be moving forward."
On #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay, we reflect on these words spoken from the #GLOBEforum main stage earlier this year by Indigenous activist and artist Keilani Elizabeth Rose throse. Listen to learn more about how #reclamation and #IntersectionalEnvironmentalism are at the centre of their vision for a clean, prosperous, and equitable tomorrow. #NIPD2024

Highlights from Feb. 15 at GLOBE Forum 2024
That's a wrap on #GLOBEforum 2024!
Agency, interconnectedness, collaboration, and reciprocity were all at the core of today's final day of programming. A regenerative future is inherently hopeful and coming together is one of the most impactful ways we can share the information, resources, and inspiration needed to achieve our climate and #sustainability goals.
Watch as GLOBE Series' Elizabeth Shirt reflects on the final day of Forum, and consider these words of family and partnership from Sustainable Energy & Sovereignty Specialist, Jordyn Burnouf:
"We're all here handing out business cards, connecting to build a better future - one where the world exists and where we can be together - and are actively participating in a foundational teaching of Indigenous governance. We talk about SDGs, business development, equity partnerships but what it really is, is kinship."
