The Association is established to promote the appropriate recognition of, and support to, Indigenous Peoples’ and community conserved territories and areas (ICCAs—territories of life) at local, national and international levels.
This purpose is set in the context of the broader vision of conserving biodiversity and ecological functions, nurturing the sustainable livelihoods and wellbeing of Indigenous Peoples and local communities, and implementing the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, including self-determination and the full respect of their cultural diversity and collective and individual rights and responsibilities.

We uphold ICCAs – Territories of Life
Today, custodian communities and their ICCAs face unprecedented stresses and threats arising from the socio-ecological changes sweeping the world. Increasingly, however, they are also being recognised as among the best hopes for the conservation of biological and cultural diversity left on the planet… The ICCA Consortium is responding to threats and opportunities by actively upholding ICCAs by promoting:
- ICCA self-strengthening processes at local level
- Networking, peer-support and advocacy at national and sub-national level
- Networking, peer-support and advocacy at international level
The ICCA Consortium grew out of the movement promoting equity in conservation in the decades around the turn of the Millennium. It was officially established in Switzerland in 2010 as an International Association under the Swiss Civil Code. It is a membership-based civil society organisation supported by an international semi-volunteer Secretariat based in twenty-two countries.
