111 | 99% Of This Speech Wasn't Written Before I Got On Stage.

My friends, today's episode is a clip from my speech at a panel on participation of Indigenous Peoples and civil-society in climate negotiations. In this event organised by the UN Office of the High-Commissioner on Human Rights, like any other event, I tried to give as much value to people. I didn't write anything in advance. This is the only preparation I did: I took into account that the event was early in the negotiations, seeing that civil-society and State representatives sat in the room, thought about the expectations that people have from these climate talks, listening to what the previous speakers have said and if I agree or disagree with them or not. These and more are factors I take into account when I think about what I want to say. Its safe to say that I don't have a pre-written speech, just some points, but most of it is being in the room and listening to the room. Enjoy!
