Today, I’m joined by Geneviève Rose from IWGIA—the International Work Group for Indigenous Affairs—an organization founded in the late 20th century by anthropologists who decided to step beyond academia and into advocacy.
Together, we explore the origins of IWGIA as well as the critical work they do, from documenting Indigenous struggles to addressing Indigenous rights, with a focus on issues such as gender equity and climate finance. We will also look at how perceptions of Indigenous peoples and their rights have shifted since the start of the organization.
