OGIEK PEOPLES' DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Member since: 2013

Working towards these commitments

Respect, protect and strengthen the land rights of women and men living in poverty, ensuring that no one is deprived of the use and control of the land on which their well-being and human dignity depend, including through eviction, expulsion or exclusion, and with compulsory changes to tenure undertaken only in line with international law and standards on human rights.
1

Secure Tenure Rights

Respect and protect the inherent land and territorial rights of indigenous peoples, as set out in ILO Convention 169 and the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, including by recognizing that respect for indigenous knowledge and cultures contributes to sustainable and equitable development and proper management of the environment".
5

Secure territorial rights for Indigenous Peoples

Mission

OPDP is dedicated to the protection of Ogiek's human rights, culture, and the nature they inhabit and to the improvement of the socio-economic opportunities available to them by way of building synergies of the Ogiek women and youth through education. OPDP endeavors to create an environment of tranquility upon which human life and nature can prosper.

Objectives

OPDP’s objectives include to promote the formulation and adoption of adequate and favorable policies and laws that enhance the livelihoods of the Ogiek community; to advocate for adequate and equitable allocation of national resources; to strengthen the livelihoods of the Ogiek community in Kenya; and to reinforce the capacity of the organization.

Constituencies

OPDP’s constituencies are minorities and indigenous Ogiek communities.
