Indigenous Peoples Issues and Resources
is a worldwide network of organizations,
academics, activists, indigenous groups,
and others representing indigenous and
tribal peoples. We consist of a concerned
group of social scientists, activists,
scholars, laypeople, indigenous people,
and others who all share a combined goal:
to provide resources, news, articles, and
information on current issues effecting
indigenous and tribal peoples around the
world. Founded in 2007 by Peter N. Jones,
Indigenous Peoples Issues and Resources
has quickly grown into a network of
subscribers, contributors, and supporters
across the globe. Indigenous Peoples
Issues and Resources has been fighting
continuously for the rights of indigenous
and tribal peoples since its inception.

Our mission is to fight for the rights of
indigenous and tribal peoples.

We accomplish this mission by:

* promoting full recognition of the rights
and territories of indigenous and tribal
peoples


* promoting the development of indigenous
and tribal peoples and their participation
in decision and policy making


* establishing effective networks between
indigenous and tribal peoples at regional,
state, and international levels


* exchanging information and experiences to

of indigenous and tribal peoples, enabling
them to have a positive impact

news, and information concerning indigenous
and tribal peoples

indigenous and tribal peoples
