Int. Day of the World's Indigenous People

International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, observed annually on August 9, has two primary goals. First, the day recognizes and celebrates the valuable diversity and cultures of the world’s Indigenous people. It represents an annual opportunity to shine a global spotlight on the ongoing achievements, contributions, and successes of Indigenous people.

International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples also serves as an opportunity to reaffirm a commitment to addressing the pervasive issues faced by Indigenous people worldwide, like marginalization, environmental and economic exploitation, and cultural erasure.
