Summary

In the present report, the Special Rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, José Francisco Calí Tzay, reviews the situation of Indigenous Peoples in Denmark and Greenland based on the information that he received during his visit from 1 to 10 February 2023. He thanks the Governments of Denmark and Greenland for having invited him and for their excellent cooperation.

Greenland is an inspiring example of the implementation of Indigenous self-determination for many Indigenous Peoples worldwide. However, the Inuit people in Denmark and Greenland still face many challenges in fully enjoying their individual and collective rights.


The Special Rapporteur considers it a priority for the Governments of Denmark and Greenland to embrace reconciliation processes in order to address the legacy of colonialism and racism and, with Inuit participation, design effective remedies and policies.


He also urges the Government of Greenland to strengthen wide-reaching inclusive consultations with the participation of the Inuit people in the development of laws, policies and action plans.
