The UN high-level event organized in Los Pinos, Mexico City was a formal closing of the International Year of Indigenous Languages 2019 (IYIL) and concluded by endorsing a strategic outcome document, a road map for the International Decade of Indigenous Languages. On December 18, 2019, the UN General Assembly proclaimed an International Decade of Indigenous Languages (2022-2032) as a follow up to the International Year.
"1. Indigenous Peoples, in particular those divided by international borders, have the right to maintain and develop contacts, relations and cooperation, including activities for spiritual, cultural, political, economic and social purposes, with their own members as well as other peoples across borders.
2. States, in consultation and cooperation with Indigenous Peoples, shall take effective measures to facilitate the exercise and ensure the implementation of this right."
-- Article 36, United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples
