There’s a significant global movement to restore and protect nature, driven by the "30x30" initiative, which aims to conserve 30% of the world's land and oceans by 2030. Supported by over 100 countries, this effort focuses on preserving important habitats to help wildlife and combat climate change.

Indigenous and local communities play a crucial role in these efforts, managing about 40% of the protected areas worldwide, showcasing how their traditional knowledge is essential for effective conservation​ (The Nature Conservancy).
