A beautiful piece on #dignity based practice that is wholly relevant to todays discussions on #biodiversity #climate and #justice. It transforms the power relationships to what we say they should be, but still don’t do. Please discuss at #IMPAC5. #IPBES #IPLC https://twitter.com/seyeabimbola/status/1621422379292594176
