Abstract

The author presents selected ventures in the area of climate change mitigation and adaptation that negatively affect indigenous peoples. Against this factual background, she analyzes relevant international legal regulations. Such an analysis enables the answer to the main research question: can climate change adaptation and mitigation actions be the justification for disrespecting the rights of indigenous peoples? The research method adopted is legal- -institutional analysis which includes an examination of the content of legal and other documents. Combined with critical analysis of literature and media reports this analysis allows representation of the reality – violations of the rights of indigenous peoples as a part of efforts to counteract climate change. Recommendations and main findings include: climate change adaptation and mitigation measures may not justify violations of the rights of indigenous peoples; such measures have to be developed in collaboration with indigenous communities; indigenous peoples’ rights may not be perceived as a factor hindering the State’s economic development or an obstacle to environmental protection; indigenous knowledge should be included in the strategies to combat climate change. Indigenous peoples should be regularly consulted by policy makers so that the their traditional knowledge is incorporated in decisions regarding these matters.

减缓气候变化措施对土著人民的影响
提交人介绍了在减缓和适应气候变化领域中对土著人民产生负面影响的一些项目。在这一事实背景下,她分析了相关的国际法律规定。这种分析使我们能够回答主要的研究问题:适应和减缓气候变化的行动能否成为不尊重土著人民权利的理由?采用的研究方法是法律制度分析,包括审查法律和其他文件的内容。结合对文学和媒体报道的批判性分析,这种分析可以反映现实情况-作为应对气候变化努力的一部分,侵犯土著人民的权利。建议和主要结论包括:气候变化适应和缓解措施可能不能成为侵犯土著人民权利的理由;这些措施必须与土著社区合作制定;不得将土著人民的权利视为阻碍国家经济发展的因素或环境保护的障碍;应对气候变化的战略应包括土著知识。决策者应定期与土著人民协商,以便将他们的传统知识纳入有关这些事项的决定。
