EMRIP Item 5: Dialogue with Special Rapporteur on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the Chair of the UNPFII and the Board of Trustees of the UN Voluntary Fund for Indigenous Peoples and members of the United Nations Treaty Bodies on UNDRIP implementation

Esteemed Special Rapporteur, distinguished delegates, and esteemed colleagues and parentes, 

Aimee Roberson es ciudadana de la Nación Choctaw de Oklahoma y también tiene ascendencia chickasaw, escocesa, irlandesa e inglesa. Se considera una estudiante “de por vida” de la sabiduría de la Madre Tierra, es Licenciada en Geología, y tiene un Máster en Biología de la Conservación. Aimee está comprometida con la reciprocidad y la comunidad, y trabaja en colaboración con la gente para garantizar que los sistemas socioecológicos de los que todos dependemos sigan floreciendo.

This June, in honor of Pride Month, Cultural Survival celebrates the wide range of identities and experiences in Two-Spirit and LGBTQ+ communities. Cultural Survival's Indigenous Youth Fellowship Program stands at the forefront of this celebration, recognizing and supporting the unique voices and leadership of Indigenous 2SLGBTQ+ youth. Through their projects, these fellows are embracing their identities, honoring their cultures, and driving positive change within their communities, creating successes and influence that reach far beyond the confines of Pride Month.

The importance of educating youth in their own languages about their own cultures using curricula designed by, or with the participation of, Indigenous  Peoples cannot be stressed enough. When youth are taught content in a manner that is culturally responsive to their Indigenous communities, it strengthens their identities and history, creating healthy spaces for self-determination.
