140 | Next Steps for Indigenous Participation at United Nations

In this episode, I share my improvised remarks on behalf of Saniri Alifuru, Dewan Adat Papua, and Saka Mese Nusa Alifuru at the OHCHR Expert Workshop on enhanced participation of Indigenous Peoples representative institutions at the United Nations. I discuss the recommendations and next steps discussed during the meeting, including the importance of clear timeline and steps to ensure progress towards enhanced participation. I also recommend changing the selection mechanism to an accreditation mechanism and emphasize the need for clear steps and consultation with Indigenous Peoples in the process. Subscribe to learn more about these important issues and how we can work towards greater representation and participation for Indigenous Peoples at the United Nations.
