Indigenous Peoples have demonstrated remarkable resilience and have made significant contributions to the sustainability of the planet, despite multiple and persistent threats to their peoples, cultures, and ways of life. Even though they have contributed little to cause climate change and have made significant contributions to climate mitigation, Indigenous Peoples are disproportionately impacted by climate shocks and disasters. The World Bank, together with Indigenous Peoples, has developed an Indigenous Peoples’ Resilience Framework that builds on experiences, evidence and stories of Indigenous Peoples’ resilience from 16 countries across three continents.
