"Indigenous women from the Amazon also held a press conference, highlighting the violence they experience against their bodies as well as their land. One young indigenous woman from Ecuador said 'We are the main custodians of the untouched forests. If women are protected, we will also protect the territories and ecosystems essential to climate mitigation.'"
