Indigenous Affairs

Indigenous Affairs refers to issues, policies, and actions that relate to the rights, cultures, and needs of Indigenous peoples—groups that have historical ties to a specific land prior to colonization. This field encompasses various aspects, including land rights, cultural preservation, education, health, and self-governance. It aims to address historical injustices, promote social equity, and support the autonomy and development of Indigenous communities. Efforts in Indigenous Affairs seek to foster recognition, reconciliation, and respect for Indigenous knowledge and contributions in society.
