Indigenous people and truth commissions
The stream will be live from 2:30 - 5:00 pm ET on Thursday, April 25.
The Ford Foundation and the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples will hold a live discussion about the role of truth commissions in advancing the rights and power of indigenous peoples. It will take place alongside the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNFPII); and feature current members of the Truth, Coexistence, and Non-Repetition Commission of Colombia; former members of the truth commissions of Guatemala, Peru, and Canada; and representatives from UN permanent missions, members of the UNFPII, and representatives from academia, and civil society.
Panelists will discuss the vital role of transitional justice mechanisms and the importance of strengthening inclusive narratives as a means of protecting indigenous peoples rights.
