In celebration of the 75th anniversary of the UDHR Cultural Survival is hosting an event at the Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice Many positive developments for Indigenous Peoples’ rights have taken place since the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Many more spaces have opened up for Indigenous participation, and new agreements protecting the rights of Indigenous Peoples have been adopted, yet, respect for the rights of Indigenous Peoples around the world remains far from fulfilled. In many parts of the world today, Indigenous Peoples are still facing grave human rights abuses and challenges. A great deal of work is needed to bring the issues of human rights of Indigenous Peoples to the front and center of global discussions. At this event, we will reflect on the achievements of the global Indigenous rights movement, and address the work still left to do to fulfill the promise of human rights for Indigenous Peoples. Featuring respected Indigenous leaders and scholars from across the globe: Kaimana Barcarse (Kanaka Hawai’i) Roberto Borrero (Taíno) Dr. Elsa Stamatopolou Pasang Dolma Sherpa (Sherpa) Dr. Pavel Sulyandziga (Udege) Dr. Dalee Sambo Dorough (Iñupiaq) Lucy Mulenkei (Maasai)

In response to catastrophic assaults on their lands and cultures by corporate industrial civilization, the First Peoples of the Amazon have formed unprecedented alliances to protect lands and peoples. These four extraordinary Indigenous leaders, who help guide the Ceibo Alliance of several ancestral peoples of Ecuador’s northern Amazon, have traveled far from their homes to share their stories of resistance and solutions. They will offer guiding wisdom from their elders to show what’s at stake for their rainforest territories, what it means to the future of our planet, and what we can all do as allies to protect the Amazon, its First Peoples and life on Earth.
