The organizer has also invited anyone to produce a testimonial regarding how they feel UNDRIP will contribute to a better quality of life for you, your family, or community where you are from. It can be written, video, or voice recording, as well as anonymous if that is your preference. These testimonials could potentially become part of the record on how Indigenous people view the UNDRIP Act as beneficial to the protection and enhancement on how we can better utilize Indigenous inherent rights for our People and our Nation.
