This radioactive transport from the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GrandCanyon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GrandCanyon</span></a> means even more deadly waste for another Native community -- the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WhiteMesaUte" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WhiteMesaUte</span></a> community in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Utah" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Utah</span></a>. </p><p>"Now, with little or no information along the haul route, the Navajo government expects the Dine' Chapters on the route to each have an emergency preparedness plan.

Ms. Que Banh<p>The history of domestic implementation of Canada’s international human rights commitments is disappointing, particularly when it comes to economic and social rights. Many countries struggle to live up to these obligations, but few position themselves as a global human rights champion the way Canada does. Over the past 75 years, Canada has neglected to build the necessary legal foundations, government structures, and political will at home to institutionalize human rights and provide accountability to rights holders. We need a new national framework for international human rights implementation.</p><p>To support this broad goal, Maytree’s report examines Canada’s national, sub-national, and intergovernmental mechanisms for the domestic implementation of our international human rights commitments.</p><p>Countries around the world are establishing new or improved standing structures for human rights implementation known as “National Mechanisms for Implementation, Reporting and Follow-up” (NMIRF). Maytree’s report documents how Canada’s <a href="https://beige.party/tags/NMIRF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NMIRF</span></a> currently functions, how it is falling short when compared to the best practices identified by the UN, and what specific changes are needed.</p><p>The way forward will require political leadership, particularly from the Forum of Ministers Responsible for Human Rights <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FMHR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FMHR</span></a>.

Indigenous Peoples in voluntary isolation and initial contact are the best protectors of the forest. Where their collective rights to lands and territories are protected, the forests thrive, alongside their societies. And not only is their survival crucial to the protection of our planet, but it is crucial to the protection of cultural and linguistic diversity. In today’s hyper-connected world, the existence of Indigenous Peoples in voluntary isolation and initial contact is a testament to the rich and complex tapestry of humanity, and it is a huge loss to our world if they cease to exist.</p><p>"We need indigenous communities for a better world</p><p>"There are an estimated 476 million Indigenous Peoples in the world living across 90 countries. They make up less than 6 per cent of the world's population, but account for at least 15 per cent of the poorest. They speak an overwhelming majority of the world’s estimated 7,000 languages and represent 5,000 different cultures.</p><p>"Indigenous Peoples are inheritors and practitioners of unique cultures and ways of relating to people and the environment. They have retained social, cultural, economic and political characteristics that are distinct from those of the dominant societies in which they live. Despite their cultural differences, Indigenous Peoples from around the world share common problems related to the protection of their rights as distinct peoples.</p><p>"Indigenous Peoples have sought recognition of their identities, their way of life and their right to traditional lands, territories and natural resources for years. Yet, throughout history, their rights have been violated. Indigenous Peoples today, are arguably among the most disadvantaged and vulnerable groups of people in the world. The international community now recognizes that special measures are required to protect their rights and maintain their distinct cultures and way of life.</p><p>"In order to raise awareness of the needs of these population groups, every 9 August commemorates the International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, chosen in recognition of the first meeting of the UN Working Group on Indigenous Populations held in Geneva in 1982."</p><p><a href="https://www.un.org/en/observances/indigenous-day" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">un.org/en/observances/indigeno</span><span class="invisible">us-day</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousPeoplesDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousPeoplesDay</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UNDRIP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UNDRIP</span></a></p>
