UNDRIP: Implementing and Enhancing the Right to Self-Determination – Webinar Recording

The UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) is the leading international standard recognising the rights of Indigenous Peoples across the world. It was adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2007 and endorsed by the Australian government in 2009.

Since then, Indigenous Peoples across the world, and in Australia, have been calling for its implementation – in law, policy and practice. DTP, in partnership with Oxfam Australia (OA), guided by leading First Nations community advocates, have recognised the need to build wider awareness of UNDRIP, including the rights of Indigenous Peoples to self-determination and what that means.

In this first webinar, Les Malezer, in conversation with Monica Morgan, focused on the right to self-determination. It built awareness of the right and why it has been at the core of Indigenous Peoples demands in Australia and internationally.
