dc.description.abstractThis Policy Brief presents the key findings and recommendations from the webinar themed “Indigenous Environmental Justice: Challenges and Pathways for Reform in Africa,” convened by the Centre for Environmental Justice in Africa in collaboration with Natural Justice on 29 September 2025. These realities highlight the persistent gap between legal recognition of environmental rights and their practical realisation for Indigenous communities. This paper draws on key insights from a webinar hosted by the Centre for Environmental Justice in Africa in collaboration with Natural Justice. It offers recommendations for government, the judiciary, civil society and the African Union to strengthen Indigenous Environmental Justice in Africa.
