Whilst at COP26 in Glasgow, Matt Sparkes, Global Head of Sustainability at Linklaters, interviewed Linklaters alumnus Olivia McKendrick and National Geographic photographer Chris Rainier, co-founders of the Cultural Sanctuaries Foundation.

The Foundation's mission is to protect indigenous cultures, which are crucial in the global fight against climate change and wilderness destruction. 80% of the world’s remaining wilderness is cared for by indigenous peoples and it is these communities that are best placed to serve as guardians of those landscapes.
