The Riddu Riđđu Festival invites for the 14th time indigenous youths from around the world to participate at the Indigenous Youth Gathering (IYG) 11 - 15 July 2012.

Riddu Riđđu invites to a seminar about the challenges of climate change and how this affects the world`s indigenous peoples.

Melting permafrost, snow and ice, mountain glaciers and the Greenland Ice Sheet disappearing. Increased shipping traffic, new available areas for petroleum exploration, changes in fish migration patterns, impact on the ecosystem and change in land use, more extreme weather, forest fires and desertification. Climate change affects indigenous peoples! What can we do to adapt and live with the changing climate?
