Poor Indigenous Peoples’ Rights Due Diligence Still Impedes the Auto Industry’s Rights-respecting Potential — SIRGE Coalition FPIC Operationalization and Accelerated Respect for Indigenous Peoples’ Rights Needed for Automakers to Progress.

First year that more than half of automakers take initial steps on #IndigenousRights, but implementation gaps persist. #SIRGECoalition examines findings in the 4th annual #LeadTheCharge automotive supply chain leaderboard. www.sirgecoalition.org/statements/p... #FPIC

This is such an important issue. Impact Assessments on multi-billion #nuclear programs require thorough and objective assessments. #Indigenous #climatechange #canada #ontario #sdg13 #UNDRIP #FPIC #rights #fairness
