At COP16 in Cali, Colombia, Images for Inclusion was instrumental in shaping a landmark outcome for Indigenous Peoples' Rights. Our dedicated efforts culminated in the emotional adoption of a permanent Subsidiary Body, giving Indigenous Peoples a vital voice in global biodiversity conservation. While we celebrate this achievement, Images for Inclusion steadfastly advocates for this new body to distinctly address the unique, internationally recognized rights of Indigenous Peoples, separate from those of local communities.

Images for Inclusion (IFI) proudly announces a significant achievement at the 24th session of the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues. Following the head of our NGO’s direct intervention highlighting Chile's lack of efforts to implement General Recommendation No. 39 concerning Indigenous women and girls, the Forum's final report now explicitly urges Chile to adopt this important recommendation. This landmark call from the UN, a direct result of our persistent advocacy, provides Indigenous Peoples, particularly indigenous women and girls, with a powerful tool for advancing their rights, ensuring Free, Prior, and Informed Consent, and combating intersectional discrimination in Chile.

We earned the Gold Candid Seal of Transparency
