Many young people around the world are coming together to stop racism and discrimination. Indigenous youth are an active part of this movement. They are connecting through networks and conferences to build friendship and advocate for their rights.
To celebrate the International Day of the World's Indigenous People, why not join this global movement?

Reach Out and Connect
Search websites of other youth involved in social change. Some sites for Indigenous youth include:
Discuss some of the issues you find on these sites with your home community. If there are chat groups or discussion boards available, join them and share your own perspective with others.
Create a statement about the rights of youth, and particularly indigenous youth. What rights should be protected? What can you do to help?
As youth around the world prepare for the August 31 World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia, and Related Intolerance  , find out more about the ways that discrimination harms youth. If it has harmed you or others you care about, take a stand and let people know that it is wrong.
If you would like more tools in advocating for the human rights of others, use this press kit to educate people in your school about the importance of freedom from racial and ethnic discrimination.
