Programa de Becas para Representantes Indígenas

El Programa de becas para representantes indígenas (IFP, por sus siglas en inglés) es un programa de formación exhaustiva en materia de derechos humanos que fue establecido por la Oficina del Alto Comisionado de las Naciones Unidas para los Derechos Humanos (ACNUDH) en el contexto del primer Decenio Internacional de los Pueblos Indígenas del Mundo (1995-2004).

El programa contribuye a reforzar las capacidades y los conocimientos de los representantes indígenas sobre el sistema de las Naciones Unidas y los mecanismos de derechos humanos en general y de los pueblos indígenas en particular. Al término de la capacitación, los becarios están mejor preparados para proteger y promover los derechos de sus comunidades en la esfera internacional. Desde el inicio del programa en 1997, más de 300 hombres y mujeres indígenas de varios países del mundo han participado en esta formación. Con posterioridad, los graduados han organizado talleres de capacitación sobre derechos humanos en sus respectivas comunidades.
