Indigenous Peoples Issues and Resources is a worldwide network of
organizations, academics, activists, indigenous groups, and others
representing indigenous and tribal peoples. We consist of a concerned
group of social scientists, activists, scholars, laypeople, indigenous
people, and others who all share a combined goal: to provide resources,
news, articles, and information on current issues effecting indigenous and
tribal peoples around the world. Founded in 2007 by Peter N. Jones,
Indigenous Peoples Issues and Resources has quickly grown into a network
of subscribers, contributors, and supporters across the globe. Indigenous
Peoples Issues and Resources has been fighting continuously for the rights
of indigenous and tribal peoples since its inception.

Our mission is to fight for the rights of indigenous and tribal peoples.
We accomplish this mission by:

* promoting full recognition of the rights and territories of
indigenous and tribal peoples

participation in decision and policy making
* establishing effective networks between indigenous and tribal
peoples at regional, state, and international levels
* exchanging information and experiences to empower members to
advocate for the rights of indigenous and tribal peoples, enabling
them to have a positive impact
* to provide articles, videos, resources, news, and information
concerning indigenous and tribal peoples
