Enacted by the General Assembly in 2007, the UNDRIP recognizes indigenous people’s basic human

rights, as well as rights to self-determination, language, equality and land, among others. The Liberal

government committed to implementing the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as part

of its effort to rebuild its relationships with Inuit, First Nations and Métis.

The Inuit Circumpolar Council (ICC) is an Indigenous Peoples’ Organization (IPO), founded in 1977 to promote and celebrate the unity of 180,000 Inuit from Alaska (USA), Canada, Greenland, and Chukotka (Russia). ICC works to promote Inuit rights, safeguard the Arctic environment, and protect and promote the Inuit way of life. In regard to climate change, we believe that it is crucial for world leaders and governments to recognize, respect and fully implement the human rights of Inuit and all other Indigenous peoples across the globe.
