will address the situation of pastoralists, hunter-gatherers,
shifting crop-farmers and other mobile
peoples who self-identify as Indigenous. The report will examine the impacts of extractive, tourism,
conservation, climate change and green financing projects, as well as
discriminatory laws, and other activities and practices on the
collective rights of mobile IPs. The particular situation
of transboundary mobile IPs will be considered, whose
ancestral territories span national borders and who encounter
discrimination, displacement, lack of recognition, restricted freedom of
movement and limited access to basic services. <br class=""><br class="">There will be two consultation sessions for people in different time zones:<br class=""><br class=""><b class="">SESSION 1: 19 March 2024 at </b>8:00 MST/15:00 GMT/16:00 CET/18:00 EAT<br class=""><b class="">SESSION 2: 20 March 2024</b> <b class="">at</b> 8:00 Kyrgyzstan/10:00 Mongolia/19:00 MST</font></span></div></div></div><div class="css-41"><div data-automation-id="noticeContainer" class="css-44 "><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><span class="-wl-43" aria-hidden="true"></span></font></div></div></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">You can register here and offer your inputs to the SR’s report:</font></div><div class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></span></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><b class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class="">English:</span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""> </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""><a href="https://lnkd.in/eB_EjjzH" class="">https://lnkd.in/eB_EjjzH</a></span></b></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><b class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class="">French:</span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""> </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""><a href="https://lnkd.in/exWqZ-Db" class="">https://lnkd.in/exWqZ-Db</a></span></b></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><b class=""><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class="">Spanish:</span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""> </span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;" class=""><a href="https://lnkd.in/e92UM88J" class="">https://lnkd.in/e92UM88J</a></span></b></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">As priority will probably be given to mobile IPs themselves to provide oral inputs, it would be particularly important that people from pastoralist organisations register for these consultations.</font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">“See” you next week during at least the first session, for which I have already registered,</font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class=""><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font face="HelveticaNeue" class="">Ann</font></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div style="margin-top: 0px;
