Indigenous peoples’ organisation Members

For decades Indigenous peoples’ organisations were members as part of the civil society category at ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ��. But at the ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ�� World Conservation Congress in 2016, the ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ�� Members Assembly adopted a landmark decision for indigenous peoples and conservation. Members voted to create a new category of ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ�� membership for Indigenous Peoples’ Organisations (IPO), strengthening the recognition of their rights, participation, voice and role in ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ��.

As a distinct and mobilised constituency within ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ��, IPO Members have can benefit from the self-determined indigenous peoples’ strategy that identifies joint priorities for advancing their rights and issues in conservation and engaging with each other and within ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ�� moving forward. These priorities focus particularly on leveraging ��ϲʿ��ֳ�ֱ��’s convening power, knowledge generation, standard setting and policy engagement in regard to indigenous issues.
