Host Organisation

Inuit Circumpolar Council

Description

Reflecting on 50 years of Arctic Indigenous Diplomacy, 30 years at the UNFCCC, 25 years of Arctic Council, and 10 years since the Paris Agreement was signed, Arctic Indigenous Peoples will reflect on the nature of diplomacy for Indigenous Peoples' Organizations working to sit as equal actors in circumpolar diplomacy with states. We will highlight the positions of the Arctic Caucus on various climate change issues and highlight Arctic Indigenous Peoples' climate action strategies for mitigation and adaptation. We will provide insight from our participation at the Arctic Council on how international diplomacy could shift within the UN to provide equal voice to Indigenous Peoples.
