II. Survey - Activity 9 of Workplan of the Local Communities and Indigenous Peoples Platform

This online survey is part of activity 9 of the initial two-year workplan of the Local Communities and Indigenous Peoples Platform (LCIPP). The survey is aimed at collecting information from representatives of indigenous peoples, local communities and other interested stakeholders.

Completing the survey should take less than 10 minutes. It is composed of 13 short questions to learn from experiences pertaining to indigenous peoples’ and local communities’ engagement in the preparation of the relevant policies, actions and communications under the Convention.

Responses will be stored anonymously and the results of the survey will be presented in aggregate format without identifying individuals.

Taking part in this survey is voluntary. Your responses to this survey are highly valued and will feed into a technical paper to be produced by the Facilitative Working Group (FWG) of the LCIPP.

The deadline for completing the survey is 31 July, 2020.
