Resolution 13 was submitted to the Assembly of First Nations’ Annual General Assembly calling for leadership in ending sexual orientation and gender-based discrimination.

The resolution positions the call to action within several articles of UNDRIP and specifies a number of steps with the intent of ending this type of discrimination.

Our discussion will use the AFN Resolution 13 as a jumping off point for a discussion on how we can all become better role models in ending discrimination, while also exploring the reasons for submitting the resolution.
