Tadodaho Sid Hill, Chief of the Onondaga Nation, delivers the ceremonial welcome at the opening of the 17th session of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues this Monday at UN Headquarters in New York.
Indigenous representatives from around the world gather every year at UNHQ to discuss how to better defend their rights. This year they are talking about ways to protect their collective rights to lands, territories and resources. 80% of the world’s remaining biodiversity is in indigenous peoples’ lands. By protecting their land rights, we protect our future!
