AIPP Annual Report 2013: A YEAR OF ADVANCEMENT AND EXPANSION

AIPP has taken major steps forward in 2013 in strengthening the organization and in advancing the rights of indigenous women. As a result of the adoption of the AIPP Gender Policy by the General Assembly in September 2012, there was a marked increase in the participation of indigenous women in AIPP activities. Several advocacy materials such as “Her Story” publication, video animation and documentary, as well as briefing papers on indigenous women, were produced in line with the mainstreaming of indigenous women’s rights and issues across the AIPP programmes. The Gender Policy was also translated in eight languages by member-organizations.
