RRI's 20th Anniversary Celebration

Exploring the past, present, and future of territorial rights

Spanish Version| French Version| Bahasa Indonesia Version

As our coalition proudly celebrates its 20th anniversary, RRI and its allies are coming together to honor two decades of unwavering commitment to advancing the land, forest, and resource rights of Indigenous Peoples, Afro-descendant Peoples, and local communities, including the women and youth within these groups.

At our celebration in Kathmandu, Nepal on June 30, we connected leaders from rights-holders’ movements across the world, showcased their achievement and took stock of new challenges faced by global action for community rights. The event was live-streamed on June 30, 2025.

Our celebration also included the launch of RRI’s first Collective Action Awards, which recognize the extraordinary achievements and efforts of Indigenous and local communities across Africa, Asia, and Latin America, spotlighting their innovation, resilience, and unwavering commitment to protecting nature and preserving traditional knowledge for future generations.
