THE UNITED NATIONS PROJECT
The Tazzla Institute for Cultural Diversity has recently joined an international
alliance working on Human Rights issues, and is now a member of the International
Amazigh Coalition for the Defense of Human Rights (C.A.I.D.D.H.), an NGO
organisation headquartered in Switzerland.
In February 2002, three members of Tazzla Institute participated in a Global Conference for Indigenous People at the United Nations, New York. The Conference was organized by a newly created NGO, P.I.P.E (Partnership of Indigenous People for the Environment) in preparation of the First Session of the Permanent Forum for Indigenous issues. Tazzla Institute offered presentations in three workshops and made one final recommendation which has been sent to the Permanent Forum, that of including the Amazigh people of North Africa and sub-saharan countries in all discussions concerning Autochthonous People of Africa at the United Nations. Helene Hagan is now an Advisory Board member of P.I.P.E.
