SOUL travels to the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues

$5,650 of $5,000 goal
Given by 90 generous donors in 25 days

Members of SOUL will travel to the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues to raise the injustices regarding the lands at Ihumatao and SHA62

Auckland

We are seeking donations to support our volunteers and committed members of the campaign travel to New York to present at the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues and meet with the Special Rappoteur. We would appreciate any support to assist our members who will be at the forum from the 26th of April to the 3rd of May 2017.

At issue is the unjustified confiscation of the land of Te Wai o Hua at Ihumatao which SOUL have been fighting to protect from development.

The Permanent Forum is the global peak body for indigenous right mandated through the UN Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples to which New Zealand is a full signatory.

The PFII allocates time for indigenous groups to address it directly on matters of concern where all domestic redoes have been exhausted.

It also hears from signatory countries and may pose questions based on the issues raised by indigenous spokespeople such as those who will be attending the forum on behalf of SOUL.

Use of funds

Funds raised will go towards every day costs while attending the forum.
