Nana Firman: My name is Nana Firman, and I am a Climate Reality Leader.

Being born in the rain forest region of Sumatra, I believe in the power of our forests as the natural solution to our climate crisis by giving indigenous peoples and traditional communities more rights to protect and manage the forests where they live. Now, more than ever, it is time for us to put climate justice at the forefront and center of our struggles.
