Working session Sustainable development of indigenous and small peoples of the North THEMATIC AREAS: Ways to improve the quality of life in the Arctic |
Project* |
|
In conditions of active industrial activity, the native habitat of indigenous small peoples of the North is exposed to negative influences, which leads to a crisis in traditional industries and aggravation of social problems.
The vulnerability of the traditional way of life and the small number of each of the peoples of the North made it necessary to formulate a special state policy with regard to their sustainable development, which provides for systemic measures to preserve an original culture, language, crafts, trades and native habitat.
Issues for discussion:
- Preservation of the traditional way of life of the indigenous peoples of the North
- The use of land and resources by the indigenous peoples of the Arctic zone
- Stimulation of traditional economic sectors and increase of their economic efficiency
- Creation of conditions for participation of indigenous peoples in solving issues, affecting their rights and interests
- The promotion of dialogue between indigenous peoples and industrial companies
