This guide, as published by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) in June 2024, is intended to assist Canadian municipal leaders and elected officials in gaining a better understanding of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) and its relevance to and potential implementation in municipal settings in Canada.
This guide introduces UNDRIP, explores how municipalities of all sizes can explore its implementation and illustrates how municipalities can build renewed and respectful relationships with Indigenous Peoples.
