March 9, 2021
Mr. President, my dear colleagues, I rise on a matter of personal and collective privilege.
Last week, on March 3, World Wildlife Day was celebrated. It was designated as such in 1973 during the Sixty-sixth Session of the United Nations General Assembly in commemoration of the adoption of CITES or the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.
The theme of this year s celebration was Forests and Livelihood: Sustaining People and Planet . It focuses on the links between the state of our planet s forests and woodlands and the preservation of the millions of livelihoods that depend directly on them, highlighting the traditional knowledge of the communities including or particularly indigenous people. Very relevant during these times as well for our country.
