This program also enjoys the cooperation of the University of Auckland (New Zealand) and the University of British Columbia (Canada).
The deadline for submitting applications is October 31, 2021. We are accepting applications from professionals, researchers, practitioners and advanced students who wish to participate in an intensive three-and-a-half-week summer program at Columbia University on Indigenous Peoples’ rights and policy.
With a central focus on human rights, this intensive immersion program provides an overview and analysis of the major questions in Indigenous affairs today, as they have emerged globally in the last decades. The program has an interdisciplinary approach and incorporates lectures and workshops on the most recent and innovative academic research and policy debates on Indigenous Peoples’ issues. It is complemented by virtual visits to the United Nations and to a Native American Nation, discussions with United Nations officials, officials of a Native American Nation and other relevant parties.
