Abstract
Established in 2021, the United Nations Permanent Forum on People of African Descent builds on at least twenty years of global work from the 2001 Durban Declaration and Programme of Action through the Working Group and Decade on People of African Descent. The Permanent Forum was invited by the General Assembly to develop a declaration of rights as a concrete step toward the implementation of the ideas initiated through the Durban process. This session brings together two elected members of the Permanent Forum to share the progress on the draft declaration and discuss the outlook for this new international mechanism.
