Report to the Human Rights Council. A\/HRC\/60\/29"},"content":{"rendered":"

\"\"The first report of the Special Rapporteur, Albert K. Barume, presented to the Human Rights Council, offers a thematic analysis of the recognition of Indigenous Peoples at the global level, seeking to facilitate their understanding and adoption by States. Nearly 20 years after the UN Declaration, the lack of understanding of the expression “Indigenous Peoples” continues to limit its application, particularly in Africa and Asia.<\/p>\n

The report underscores that States have the obligation to recognize Indigenous Peoples as holders of specific and inherent rights under international law. A critical issue addressed is the conflation of Indigenous Peoples with “local communities,” which the Special Rapporteur deems incorrect and dangerous. Such a fusion can undermine the legal protection of the specific rights of Indigenous Peoples.<\/p>\n

The report urges the full incorporation of the Declaration into national legislation and the adoption of legislative and administrative measures for its implementation, in collaboration with Indigenous Peoples.<\/p>\n
