The Challenges of Implementing the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples

 

Paper of the UNPFII Chair, Victoria Tauli-Corpuz, presented at the Indigenous Peoples' Summit in Ainu Mosir 2008, July 1-4, 2008, Hokkaido, Japan:

Victoria Tauli-CorpuzOn behalf of the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues and my organizations, Tebtebba and the Asian Indigenous Women's Network I would like to thank the Steering Committee of the “Indigenous Peoples Summit in Ainu Mosir 2008” for inviting me to be in this historic gathering. I am very happy to be here with you today because I would like to believe that this gathering is partly a result of the participation of the Ainu at the 2007 session of the Permanent Forum. You informed the plenary that the G8 2008 meeting will be held here in Hokkaido, your ancestral territory. As the Chair of the Permanent Forum I suggested that you should think of organizing an event for indigenous peoples around this time. I congratulate you for being able to organize this Summit and for bringing us from all over the world.
