Enlarging the Network
Any organization or individual can become a member of IPIR. Currently, IPIR has over 25,000 members, including individuals, local organizations, national bodies, and regional organizations that themselves represent a large number of peoples and communities. However, IPIR is always interested in making contact with other interested organizations, particularly indigenous and human rights oriented NGOs and agencies, campaign centres, research and publication centres, and governmental, regional, and international bodies. The more IPIR interacts with different organizations around the world, the greater will be the impact of its members on local, regional, state, and international and inter-governmental decision-making.
