International Verification Mission on the Humanitarian and Human Rights Situation of Indigenous People in Colombia
In September 2006, to draw national and international attention to ongoing human rights violations of Indigenous communities, the National Indigenous Organization of Colombia (ONIC), an Inter Pares counterpart, organized the International Verification Mission. Delegates from Canada, Europe, Latin America, Colombia, and the United Nations were invited to witness the crisis faced by Indigenous Colombians and to document their findings. Inter Pares and the Native Women's Association of Canada (NWAC) participated in the mission. This 45-minute video was filmed during the mission and shows excerpts from field visits, interviews with international delegates and from the Forum of Indigenous Women organized at the end of the international mission.
