The Indigenous Committee on Climate Change (CIMC, in Portuguese) monitors national and international debates on climate change. It disseminates studies conducted by indigenous peoples on climate change to promote traditional knowledge. This newsletter aims to publicize the CIMC and its activities, as well as to introduce its members.
