Petition for Support - ICSWG - PFPAD Infrastructure & Sustainability Advocacy Campaign

2024 is a critical year and your support matters. Join the International Civil Society Working Group (ICSWG) in advocating for crucial changes to enhance the Permanent Forum on People of African Descent (PFPAD). As we approach the April session of the PFPAD, our collective efforts converge on a critical theme: Infrastructure and Sustainability.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

The ICSWG is spearheading a campaign to shift the April PFPAD Session’s focus to address critical Infrastructure and Sustainability issues.

WHY?

The PFPAD mechanism can be a powerful tool for collective organizing, strategy development, and action for Africans and people of African descent. Yet, its potential relies on a solid financial and staffing infrastructure and a structure prioritizing civil society interests. Neglecting these elements may hinder its effectiveness.

WHO?

ICSWG-PFPAD, a coalition committed to advancing the rights and well-being of Africans and people of African descent, works to strengthen the PFPAD mechanism in line with its principles and the objectives of the International Decade for People of African Descent.

WHAT’S THE CALL TO ACTION?

Please sign to show your support for this important cause. Your endorsement carries weight and contributes to the collective effort to bring necessary transformations to the PFPAD mechanism. Together, we can ensure the Forum serves as an effective platform for the empowerment and advancement of people of African descent.

Make a difference with us – support the campaign for Infrastructure and Sustainability now!

Yours in Power,

International Civil Society Working Group for the Permanent Forum on People of African Descent (ICSWG - PFPAD)

Cependant, son potentiel dépend d'une infrastructure financière et de personnel solide et d'une structure qui donne la priorité aux intérêts de la société civile. Négliger ces éléments peut nuire à son efficacité

QUEL EST L’APPEL À L’ACTION ?

Nous demandons votre signature en guise de démonstration de soutien à cette cause importante. Votre soutien a du poids et contribue à l’effort collectif pour réaliser les transformations nécessaires dans le mécanisme du PFPAD.

Updates

January 19, 2024

The ICSWG is currently drafting formal policy briefs to define the specific infrastructure requirements we will present during the upcoming PFPAD session. We are coordinating with legal advisors to ensure our sustainability demands align with the existing framework of the International Decade for People of African Descent.

January 19, 2024

The rapid growth of our current reach provides the leverage needed to formalize the request for a meeting with the Secretariat. I am currently finalizing the briefing memo that translates these specific policy demands into the structural language required for the upcoming April session.

This is opportune coming on the auspicious occasion of Black History Month proclamations. Let us use the 2024 theme: Black Excellence: A Heritage To Celebrate, A Future To Build to push this petition to success. I support inclusion of other African languages (Yoruba, Swahili, Igbo, etc)

I support this initiative and desire to see the same resources given to others afforded the Afro Descendants and people of African Descent to heal the impact of the 1452 Papal Bull which is still impacting us as well as the Trans Atlantic slave trade /war against people of African Descent whose impact we are still suffering from till today. What will it take to give us equity? We the original people of the earth.
