Indigenous Peoples have cultivated, used, and safeguarded Cannabis and a broad variety of traditional knowledge associated with it, for generations, in many parts of the world. Their rights (to their lands, genetic resources, traditional knowledge, and to self-determination) are protected under instruments (UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, the CBD, and now the GRATK) and intersect with ongoing international processes on biopiracy, intellectual property, and cultural heritage.
The Cannabis Embassy follows howCannabis policy affects Indigenous Peoples’ rights, and how Indigenous activism impacts and improves Cannabis policy discussions in local and international fora.
