The discussion will explore:

Together, the speakers will bring perspectives from Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand and Taiwan across Indigenous-led carbon market participation, governance and legal frameworks, custodianship and intergenerational value, ESG procurement, biodiversity-related opportunities and community benefit.
