UNESCO and key stakeholders will launch a study analysing the factors and challenges affecting Indigenous peoples and the media at a special event in the margins of the 16th session Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (EMRIP).
The study will consolidate efforts to fulfil Indigenous peoples’ right to establish and run their own media and have access to all forms of non-indigenous media without discrimination as described in Article 16 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). The study will also address how States ensure that publicly owned and private media duly reflect Indigenous affairs.
