Support for Indigenous & Minority Peoples of the North

One specific ethnic group encountered in the Amur region are the Evenk people – an indigenous community who are found in north-eastern Russia and China, and whose traditional lands are in the vicinity of the Kuranakh iron ore project in the north-west of the Amur region. The Group has good relations with the Evenk people and purchases a wide range of traditional goods and foods as a way of supporting the traditional Evenk way of life. The Group is preparing an Indigenous Peoples' Plan, which it will sign with the Association of Indigenous Peoples of the Amur region.
