Knowledge Exchanges
DGM Global hosts regular knowledge exchanges in Africa, Asia, the Americas, and at the global level. These events are opportunities for indigenous peoples and local communities to share knowledge with one another, develop skills, and build connections with relevant networks and organizations, all to enhance their capacity to support climate action and sustainable forest management.
