UNPFII is an annual conference for the Indigenous peoples, started in 2002; it was established under international recognition of the rights of the Indigenous peoples. It is currently the most significant global forum for the Indigenous peoples, with thousands of individuals and organizations participating worldwide each year. Representatives from various fields related to Indigenous issues participate in discussion and provided expert advice to advisory bodies within the United Nations (UN) system on Indigenous issues, as well as to the funds and agencies of the UN as a reference in decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>This is the first year the UNPFII was hosted in-person after the emergence of COVID-19. Margaret and her team \u2013\u00a0 two additional young Indigenous scholars from the Pangcah\/\u2019Amis and the Atayal communities based in Boston, Massachusetts, and Helsinki, Finland \u2013 gathered in the UN headquarters in New York City. Besides participating in this forum, they also collaborated with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.habitatpro.org\/\">Habitat Pro<\/a>, an Indigenous NGO, and other delegations from the Taiwan Indigenous communities to host a side event at the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO) in New York to share their hands-on experiences in their professions. Margaret joined delegates from the Paiwan communities and officials from the Council of Indigenous Peoples (CIP) in Taiwan for a tour of the MET to view the eleven Taiwan Indigenous holdings in the museum. These materials come from Atayal, Tao, and Paiwan communities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3387 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-750x1000.jpg 750w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-1140x1520.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/jsis.washington.edu\/taiwan\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2023\/06\/Talk-with-the-Oceania-curator-and-her-team-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For more on Margaret&#8217;s experiences, <a href=\"https:\/\/taiwaninsight.org\/2023\/06\/01\/storytelling-behind-the-overseas-taiwan-indigenous-collections-material-cultures-as-a-means-to-connect-with-international-indigenous-communities\/\">please see her full article in <em>Taiwan Insight<\/em> here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Margaret Yun-Pu Tu (Nikal Kabalan\u2019an) is from the Taiwan Indigenous community of the Pangcah\/\u2019Amis people.
