Abstract:
Purpose of the study. The article examines the problems of protecting the rights of indigenous peoples in the context of climate change under International Human Rights Law and International Climate Change Regime. Results. As a result of the study, the author concludes that the relevance of the issue of protecting the rights of indigenous peoples in the context of climate change is due to the fact that neither the 1989 Convention on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples in Independent Countries, nor international agreements on human rights consider issues related to the violation of the socio-economic and cultural rights of indigenous peoples as a result of global warming. The issue of the impact of climate change on indigenous peoples was the subject of discussion at the 21st Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC, which resulted in the creation of a special Platform for working with local communities and indigenous peoples. This trend can also be traced in the activities of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, UNESCO, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, the UN Human Rights Council, etc. Of particular interest are the petitions submitted by Inuit and Athabaskan representatives to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights in 2005. and 2013. accordingly, since this marked the beginning of the formation of international practice to protect the rights of indigenous peoples, violated due to the lack of an appropriate government strategy to reduce the harmful anthropogenic impact on the climate system. Based on a systematic analysis of international human rights treaties and climate protection treaties, it can be summarized that the protection of the rights of indigenous peoples can be carried out through the application of human rights norms, international legal norms on the rights of indigenous peoples and the inclusion of indigenous peoples' issues in international agreements to combat climate change.
