GroundWork: Policy Briefings for Action

GroundWork is a political intelligence programme we co-created with the International Climate Politics Hub (ICPH) and TINTA — designed to support Indigenous Peoples, Local Communities, and Afro-descendant Peoples to understand and influence international climate, biodiversity, and land governance processes.
Since 2023, the series has delivered multilingual briefings, strategic insight dialogues, and podcast episodes on some of the most consequential policy processes affecting Indigenous lands and rights — from UNFCCC negotiations and the Global Biodiversity Framework to transition minerals and emerging technologies. In 2025 alone, we reached over 1,400 participants across five briefings.
The 2026 programme is now underway. All public briefings are free to access. Written summaries, webinar recordings, and podcast episodes are available through the GroundWork page.
