World Tourism Day is commemorated each year on 27 September in order to foster awareness among the international community of the importance of tourism and its social, cultural, political, and economic value. This year, tourism has been among the hardest hit of all sectors by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the theme of the 2020 edition of international day is "Tourism and Rural Development."

For Indigenous Peoples, food security is necessary for health, and also to maintain a relationship with the earth and its resources.
What is also valuable for Indigenous Peoples is to consume culturally appropriate food. In this radio program, we speak to Dr. Dalee Sambo Dorough and Carolina Behe, as we find out more about food sovereignty and food security amongst Inuit and Peoples in the Arctic.

Governments or states make use of geographical boundaries to demarcate territories. Political entities come to agreements on which area belongs to whom. In some cases, borders are agreed upon by two countries, and in other cases it may have been suggested by a third party like an international conference. In many cases, borders are imposed on places, without taking into consideration the people who live in that area. In this program, we speak to Aslak Holmberg from the Saami Council in Finland, who tells us how borders have affected his life, as well as his environment.

Aucune exploitation ne peut être faite sur nos terres sans appliquer au préalable l’article trente-deux de la Déclaration des Nations Unies sur les droits des peuples autochtones. Ce droit affirme que les états doivent obtenir le consentement préalable, libre et éclairé des peuples autochtones avant que tout projet de développement, pouvant altérer les terres et les ressources des peuples autochtones, ne soit approuvé; notamment en ce qui concerne la mise en valeur, l’utilisation ou l’exploitation des ressources minérales, hydriques ou autres.
A chaque saison, je m'inquiète de notre (mauvaise) récolte; nous n’avons plus assez de terres agricoles depuis que l'entreprise s’est installée dans notre communauté. C'est vrai, on a pris nos terres sans notre consentement préalable, libre et éclairé. Ce droit oblige toute entreprise ou gouvernement d'informer, de consulter et d'écouter les peuples autochtones avant d'exploiter leurs terres. Agissons donc pour responsabiliser cette entreprise.
