SUMMARY:(Online) Indigenous Peoples and the United Nations
DESCRIPTION:The ILO Convention 169 and the UNDRIP provide a specific international legal framework to safeguard the survival\, dignity and well-being of the indigenous peoples of the world. In addition to these instruments\, indigenous peoples are today able to voice their concerns and complain against violations of their rights through mechanisms such as the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Peoples and UN human rights bodies. Panellists will draw on their experiences and reflect upon the impact of these instruments and mechanisms for indigenous communities. Do they feel the impact of these institutions in domestic laws and policies? What is missing and what else can be done? \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nMr. Pooven Moodley\, Executive Director\, Natural Justice;Ms. Lucy Mulenkei\, Executive Director\, Indigenous Information Network;Dr. Fleur Te Aho\, Senior Lecturer\, The University of Auckland.Mr. Marcus Stewart\, Co-Chair of the First Peoples’ Assembly of VictoriaMs. Joan Carling\, Executive Director\, Indigenous Peoples Rights International

SUMMARY:(Online) Indigenous Peoples and Regional Human Rights Systems
DESCRIPTION:Regional human rights systems have often been at the forefront of relevant developments in the rights of indigenous peoples. These systems usually enjoy less institutional constraints than international criminal tribunals and are able to address violations from broader perspectives. This panel will consider how regional human rights mechanisms have approached claims of violations against Indigenous peoples’ rights. The panellists may discuss: \n\n\n\nHow do different human rights mechanisms approach the rights of indigenous peoples? What are their limitations and what can they achieve;The interplay – if any –  between regional human rights mechanisms and international criminal courts and tribunals in delivering justice to Indigenous peoples for violations which might amount to international crimes. What can international criminal justice learn from their experiences?\n\n\n\nModerator: Dr. Mamadou Hébie\, Associate Professor of International Law\, Leiden University \n\n\n\nSpeakers:  \n\n\n\nMs. Lucy Claridge\, Senior Counsel\, Head of Strategic Legal Response Centre\, Acting Coordinator Legal and Human Rights Programme (LHRP)\, Forest Peoples Programmes;Mr. Korir Sing’Oei Abraham\, Senior Partner\, SMS Advocates LLP.Judge Raúl Eduardo Sánchez Sánchez\, Judge\, Special Jurisidiction for Peace (JEP)

SUMMARY:Summer School of 2022 - Conflict Resolution: How to Mediate?
DESCRIPTION:Whether it is Ukraine\, Israel\, Yemen\, or Afghanistan\, conflict is an undeniable part of the domain of international relations. Although the nature of conflict has changed to include different modes of warfare such as drones and private mercenaries\, the main questions surrounding conflict have remained the same\, namely ‘why does a conflict occur?’ and ‘what can be done to solve a given conflict?’. The latter question is where the role of international negotiation in the shape of mediation comes into view. In the words of William Zartman\, conflicts are ‘only ripe for resolution through mediation when a Mutually Hurting Stalemate is reached’. \n\n\n\n Diplomats play a key role in facilitating mediation sessions. But as we all know not every meeting is a success\, indicating that you cannot be a good mediator before becoming a good negotiator. So how do diplomats know when this so-called Mutually Hurting Stalemate is reached? And if so\, where do they meet and who should mediate? If you recognize yourself in these questions then this summer school might exactly be what you are looking for. \n\n\n\nThe program of 2022 includes speakers like Paul Meerts\, Hans van den Berg and practising diplomats. Students are offered the opportunity to expand their (international) network with networking sessions and practice their skills in a diplomatic simulation. In doing so\, participants represent a country or an international organisation\, prepare a position\, and negotiate an agreement.

SUMMARY:Major Trends in Global Migration: In Conversation with Leo Lucassen
DESCRIPTION:In the coming decades\, supporting refugees\, internally displaced people (IDPs) and other migrants will likely demand a growing effort from humanitarian organizations. At the same time\, the topic of migration is increasingly being politicized\, placing humanitarian organizations in the middle of a political battle. This is why KUNO is organizing a series of events discussing current trends in migration and their significance for humanitarian actors. \n\n\n\nGlobal trends in migration\n\n\n\nWhat are the expected developments in terms of migration globally? What will be the directions of movement? What does this mean for socio-economic development in different parts of the world? The third event in the series on migration and refugees will cover the topic of continuities and changes in migration and their social\, economic and demographic impact. \n\n\n\nThe topic will be introduced by Leo Lucassen\, professor of social history at Leiden university and the International Institute of Social History (Amsterdam) and specialized in the history of migration and integration\, who will be interviewed by journalist and host Bahram Sadeghi. After the interview\, there will be discussion\, with input from Anila Noor (New Women Connectors)\, Ton Huijzer (Independent consultant)\, and the audience. \n\n\n\nWe are happy to finally be able to organize real-life events again\, and invite you to join us in person for this interactive event. \n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nTo sign up for this event\, please send an email (including your name and organizations) to: \n\n\n\nkuno@kuno-platform.nl

SUMMARY:Co-creation Workshop on the Implications of Climate Change for the Professional Practice of the Dutch Police
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this first co-creation workshop is to bring together police officers and trainers\, climate change experts and activists\, as well as academics to discuss more in-depth the nature of (current and future) challenges that climate change present for policing practice\, and how the Dutch Police can respond to them. The workshop is also designed to jointly identify the knowledge gaps that would need to be filled in order to develop effective police training programmes. It is hoped that this workshop will help researchers at THUAS to develop a successful funding application for a practice-oriented research project on this topic. Such a project would be both beneficial to practitioners as well as to educational and training programmes within and outside of THUAS. The workshop is thus also aimed at facilitating networking between the participants and identifying potential consortium partners.Please sign up (by September 9) using this link.
