We are honored to welcome the UN Special Rapporteur on the Independence of Judges and Lawyers, Ms. Margaret Satterthwaite, who will present key findings from her latest report—opening the space for a transformative dialogue.

This gathering will bring together Indigenous voices, UN representatives, Member States, and human rights actors to:

✨ Affirm that Indigenous justice is our right and it's fundamental for self-determination
🛠️ Explore how to implement the report's recommendations
🤝 Strengthen alliances for truly plural justice systems

📢 Be part of this moment and help us amplify a message that must be heard: There can be no true justice without Indigenous Peoples.
