Overview

Indigenous rights encompass the fundamental human rights and specific rights of indigenous peoples, including land ownership, language, religion, and cultural heritage. The fight for indigenous rights is a global issue, with organizations like Amnesty International, the United Nations, and the Indigenous Peoples' Biocultural Climate Change Assessment (IPCCA) working to protect and promote these rights. According to a report by the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, there are over 370 million indigenous people worldwide, with many facing significant challenges to their rights and livelihoods.
