Government officials, members of NGOs, teachers, students, and
indigenous representatives are trained by the Department of
International Law, based on international standards for the protection
of the human rights of the indigenous peoples.
For their part, the participants commit to transmitting the knowledge
and experience acquired to their respective communities, schools, or
workplaces. Thus, the learning process does not end with the event
organized by the OAS. On the contrary, the participants receive
technical assistance with organizing "local replicas" of the course.
These replicas take the form of courses, seminars, and workshops
organized by the participants, with technical support from the OAS
Department of International Law, aimed at publicizing the rights of
indigenous peoples in the Americas. Through those replicas, the
participants become catalysts, spreading the knowledge they have
acquired and tailoring it to their specific circumstances. In this way,
more and more awareness is generated of the rights of indigenous
peoples, in every nook and cranny of the Americas, among an ever greater
number of both indigenous and non-indigenous people, who can use what
they have learned to exercise their rights.
Here you will find information regarding the replicas conducted thus
far: they tell dozens of stories depicting successful collective
experiences of promoting the rights of the indigenous peoples in
different countries of the Americas.
