65. We demand the creation of an Ad Hoc Open-Ended Inter-Sessional Working Group on Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities and Climate Change with the objective of studying and proposing timely, effective and adequate solutions to respond to the emergency situations caused by climate change affecting Indigenous Peoples and local communities.

66. We call upon all governments to implement Climate Impact Assessments which take into account indigenous knowledge systems and observations, as well as the full and equal participation of Indigenous Peoples in all aspects and stages of the assessment.
