Spring 2021 Caucus: DRIPA (Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act)

BC’s Action Plan on the Implementation of DRIPA

The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) is an international set of standards to protect the rights of Indigenous peoples. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada called for the UN Declaration to be used as a framework for moving toward true and lasting reconciliation. In 2019, British Columbia passed legislation to implement UNDRIP in consultation and cooperation with Indigenous people, to align BC’s laws with the UN Declaration.
