    Why Land
    Many of the solutions to the world’s problems lie right before us, in how land is governed and managed. Sustainable and equitable land use elevates ecosystems and communities. It builds democracy, justice, sustainability and resilience.

CADPI

Centro para la Autonomía y Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas

Member since: 2015

Working towards these commitments

Respect, protect and strengthen the land rights of women and men living in poverty, ensuring that no one is deprived of the use and control of the land on which their well-being and human dignity depend, including through eviction, expulsion or exclusion, and with compulsory changes to tenure undertaken only in line with international law and standards on human rights.
1

Secure Tenure Rights

Recognize and protect the diverse tenure and production systems upon which people’s livelihoods depend, including the communal and customary tenure systems of smallholders, indigenous peoples, pastoralists, fisher folks, and holders of overlapping, shifting and periodic rights to land and other natural resources, even when these are not recognized by law, and whilst also acknowledging that the well-being of resource-users may be affected by changes beyond the boundaries of the land to which they have tenure rights.
3

Diverse Tenure Systems

Ensure gender justice in relation to land, taking all necessary measures to pursue both de jure and de facto equality, enhancing the ability of women to defend their land rights and take equal part in decision-making, and ensuring that control over land and the benefits that are derived thereof are equal between women and men, including the right to inherit and bequeath tenure rights.
4

Equal land rights for women

Respect and protect the inherent land and territorial rights of indigenous peoples, as set out in ILO Convention 169 and the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, including by recognizing that respect for indigenous knowledge and cultures contributes to sustainable and equitable development and proper management of the environment".
5

Secure territorial rights for Indigenous Peoples

Enable the role of local land users in territorial and ecosystem management, recognizing that sustainable development and the stewardship of ecosystems are best achieved through participatory decision-making and management at the territorial-level, empowering local land users and their communities with the authority, means and incentives to carry out this responsibility.
6

Locally-managed ecosystems

Mission

CADPI is a community-based organisation with experience, knowledge and skills in the areas of wellness, autonomy (self-determination) and territorial management based on the principles and values of human rights, collective rights and multiculturalism. The organisation envisions indigenous populations being a part of societies that revolve around multicultural, gender and inter-generational relationships, that are based on the values of individual and collective human rights, and of societies that promote the notions of wellness, with a holistic vision in which human beings are a part of a larger system. 

Objectives

The organisation’s objectives are to promote CADPI as a knowledge-management center that focuses on issues such as multiculturalism, self-determination, territorial management, human rights and wellness. It is also to contribute to the cultural revival, the respectful exchange and the multicultural harmony between indigenous groups and ethnic communities of the RACN Region (North Caribbean Coast Autonomous Region), and to increase the self-sustaining nature of CADPI as an organisation.

Constituencies

CADPI works in the four indigenous territories of Mayangna Sauni As, Tasba Pri, Wangki Twi- TAsba Raya, Wangki Awala Kupia.
