Publication update: FPP report ‘FOREST PEOPLES: Numbers across the world’ now available in French, Spanish, Portuguese and Bahasa Indonesia

By providing estimated figures for indigenous and forest peoples’ populations in countries and regions across the globe, this FPP report, released in May 2012, seeks to raise awareness of the existence of peoples who primarily depend on forests for their livelihoods, and to enhance their visibility as key actors and rights-holders in the management and use of forests and forest resources. These figures may serve as a useful reference in advocacy for the recognition of forest peoples’ legal and human rights.

This report is now available in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Bahasa Indonesia.
