13th session/ Regional meetings of the Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples
The impact of COVID-19 on the rights of indigenous peoples under the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples
The 13th session of the Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, initially scheduled to take place from 8 to12 June 2020, was postponed to take place from
30 November to 4 December 2020 due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Following the ongoing COVID-19 crisis affecting the travel of members, indigenous peoples, Member States and others, the EMRIP decided to convert its postponed 13th into
four virtual regional meetings, followed by a wrap up meeting for the EMRIP members and Secretariat only.
The topic of the regional meetings will be, "The impact of COVID-19 on the rights of indigenous peoples under the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples". See
Concept Note. The outcome of these regional meetings was recorded in the EMRIP's annual report and may be viewed on the webcast here:
