Social justice for Indigenous Peoples is a critical issue related to historical and current injustices, ongoing systemic discrimination, and the need for equal opportunity.

Indigenous Peoples around the world face a legacy of colonization, dispossession of rights to their lands, territories and resources, traditional lifestyles, the right to equitable development and cultural erasure. This has resulted in systemic problems such as ongoing violations of their rights, poverty, poor health, inequalities in education and employment, and discrimination in justice systems.
