For millennia, Indigenous Peoples have traveled, harvested, and lived in deep relationship with the oceans — waters that nourish our food systems, economies, and lifeways across Mother Earth. Traditional Indigenous Knowledge sustains this sacred, reciprocal bond, protecting the oceans that have always protected us. 🌊 Recognizing Indigenous stewardship as essential to sustaining ocean health is not just acknowledgment — it’s a call to action. Ocean justice begins with honoring Indigenous rights, knowledge, and sovereignty. #WorldOceansDay #DefendTheSacred #WaterIsLife #IndigenousStewardship
