The craft fair is organized in conjunction with UNPFII, which is the largest global gathering of Indigenous Peoples. The theme of this year’s global gathering spotlights Indigenous Peoples’ rights to self-determination and the voices of Indigenous youth. A key component in ensuring the right to self-determination is access to financing, to enable Indigenous Peoples to better assert their rights, pursue their economic, social and cultural development and fund their governance structures, as stipulated in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
