UN rights office urges Indigenous-centred World Heritage protection
Original: World Heritage protection must put Indigenous Peoples at the centre
The UN Human Rights Office says World Heritage protection must put Indigenous Peoples at the centre. It argues that conservation and heritage decisions affecting ancestral lands should include Indigenous communities as rights-holders with a real say, not as bystanders. The call reinforces growing pressure on heritage bodies and states to respect Indigenous rights in site nominations and protected-area management.
Why now: The UN Human Rights Office has just issued a public statement on Indigenous participation in World Heritage protection.
