Why UNDRIP matters and the impacts it will have

In June 2024, the City of Vancouver became the first municipality in Canada to put the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People (UNDRIP) into action. One year later, Vancouver City Council, xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation) and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation) reaffirm their joint commitment to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) Action Plan.

This 5-year plan is the most significant and in-depth collaboration we’ve achieved, with staff and partners working together to move Reconciliation forward in a meaningful, measurable way.

Here, representatives across all four governments share what UNDRIP means to them and what they hope its impact will be for this, and future, generations.
