The theme of this panel will be the exploration of several questions related to indigenous development, such as the following:
- how can human rights be used to develop a political and cultural environment in which indigenous peoples can achieve self-determination?
- what obstacles must be confronted as indigenous peoples use human rights law to assert their rights to resources, culture and self-governance?
- what strategies exist to develop the practice of intercultural education, exchange, respect and diplomacy in the field of human rights?
- what is the relationship between international human rights norms and processes and indigenous culture and governance?
