This roundtable brings together experts in the field of language rights, members of indigenous communities, United Nations leaders, and civil society representatives actively working on the ground, all of whom offer unique perspectives on how realizing the targets of SDG 16 with respect to indigenous peoples will benefit from close attention to the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, which codifies rights to language in settings such as education, media, and government administration. Drawing upon documented best practices and empirical research, they discuss their own work and experiences in relation to the challenges and possibilities of leveraging the International Decade of Indigenous Languages to advance SDG 16 through the implementation of language rights and innovative multilingual solutions.
