INDIGENOUS LANGUAGES<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Csaba K\u0151r\u00f6si today convenes a high-level event for the launch of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages. In his opening remarks, President K\u0151r\u00f6si said that languages are vectors of knowledge and carriers of identity.<\/p>\n

With each indigenous language that goes extinct, so too goes the culture, tradition and knowledge it bears.<\/p>\n

The President noted that he had just returned from COP-15 in Montreal.<\/p>\n

He said that he left COP-15 with the conviction that if we are to successfully protect nature, we must listen to indigenous peoples, and we must do so in their own languages.<\/p>\n

He called on Member States to work with indigenous communities on three specific actions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Safeguard indigenous peoples\u2019 rights \u2013 such as to education in their native tongues.<\/li>\n
  2. Ensure that indigenous peoples and their knowledge are not exploited, and secure their free, prior, and informed consent when harnessing their knowledge or languages.<\/li>\n
  3. And to consult indigenous peoples, engaging with them in every stage of decision-making processes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The President closed his remarks with some words in the language of Lushootseed, which is on Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵESCO\u2019s Critically Endangered List.<\/p>\n

    You have his full remarks in your inboxes and online: https:\/\/www.un.org\/pga\/77\/2022\/12\/16\/pga-remarks-to-the-launch-of-the-international-decade-of-indigenous-languages\/<\/a><\/p>\n

    The President will give closing remarks to the event, shortly.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE <\/strong><\/p>\n

    This afternoon in the General Assembly, Member States will take action on a number of items, including the report of the Credentials Committee.<\/p>\n

    I understand the link that I included in yesterday\u2019s notes didn\u2019t work for some colleagues, if you still need the document, please let me know.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    LOOKING AHEAD<\/strong><\/p>\n

    And looking ahead, on Monday, 19 December, President K\u0151r\u00f6si will take part in the celebration of Arabic Language Day.<\/p>\n

    As you know, the Secretary-General will hold a briefing that day, so there will not be a noon briefing.<\/p>\n

    Tuesday, 20 December, will be the election of members of ECOSOC. That\u2019s in the General Assembly Hall in the 10AM session.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n
