The '''Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization''' ('''UNPO''') is an [[international organization]] established to facilitate the voices of unrepresented and marginalized [[Nation|nations]] and peoples worldwide. It was formed on 11 February 1991<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.worldstatesmen.org/International_Organizations2.html|title=UNPO World Statesman.org|publisher=Worldstatesman|access-date=7 February 2012|archive-date=27 April 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200427092430/https://www.worldstatesmen.org/International_Organizations2.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.unpo.org/section/2|title=About UNPO|publisher=UNPO|access-date=7 February 2012|archive-date=5 March 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120305115204/http://www.unpo.org/section/2|url-status=live}}</ref> at the Peace Palace in [[The Hague]], [[Netherlands]]. Its members consist of [[indigenous peoples]], [[Minority group|minorities]], and [[List of states with limited recognition|unrecognized]] or [[Military occupation|occupied]] territories.

UNPO works to develop the understanding of and respect for the right to [[self-determination]], provides advice and support related to questions of [[international recognition]] and [[political autonomy]], trains groups on how to advocate for their causes effectively, and directly advocates for an international response to [[human rights]] violations perpetrated against UNPO member groups. Since its foundation in 1991, UNPO’s membership has grown steadily from its original founders, now representing more than 45 peoples worldwide, comprising over 300 million people lacking true representation in domestic or international forums. Over the years, many members have achieved their movement’s goals and gained formal recognition at the national or international level, leading them to leave the organization as their peoples are no longer considered “unrepresented.” Former members who have left the organization after gaining full independence and joining the [[United Nations]] (UN) include [[Armenia]], [[East Timor]], [[Estonia]], [[Latvia]], [[Georgia (country)|Georgia]] and [[Palau]].<ref>{{cite news|first=Barbara|last=Crossette|url=https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0CE1DB1238F93BA25751C1A962958260|title=Those Knocking, Unheeded, at UN's Doors Find Champion|work=[[New York Times]]|date=18 December 1994}}</ref><ref name="An Anthropology of NGOs">{{cite magazine|last=Tishkov|first=Valerie|url=http://www.eurozine.com/articles/2005-06-01-tishkov-en.html|title=An Anthropology of NGOs|magazine=[[Eurozine]]|date=July 2008|access-date=19 July 2008|archive-date=29 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120229152902/http://www.eurozine.com/articles/2005-06-01-tishkov-en.html|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Throughout 2024, UNPO conducted several training sessions aimed at helping its members and activists. Sessions included in-person training for Asia Pacific members in Geneva, online [[computer security|cybersecurity]] training, a cybersecurity training in person for the [[Baloch people|Baloch]] community in Stockholm, an in-person training in Brussels on the principles and practical applications of non-violent resistance and a youth study session supported by the [[Council of Europe]], emphasizing the importance of acquiring and improving necessary skills for advocacy within marginalized communities. <ref>{{Cite web|title=UNPO: UNPO's Journey of Empowerment: The 2023-2024 Activity Report in Global Advocacy and Solidarity|url=https://unpo.org/article/8685|access-date=19 June 2024|website=unpo.org|date=2 November 2009}}</ref>

== History ==
The UNPO was conceived of by leaders of [[self-determination]] movements such as [[Linnart Mäll]] of the [[Congress of Estonia]], [[Erkin Alptekin]] of [[East Turkestan]], and [[Lodi Gyari]] of [[Tibet]], together with {{ill|Michael van Walt van Praag|nl}}, along with the international law adviser of the [[14th Dalai Lama]]. The founders were representatives of national movements of Estonia, Latvia, Tibet, [[Crimean Tatars]], Armenia, Georgia, [[Tatarstan]], [[East Turkestan]], East Timor, [[Aboriginal Australians|Australian Aboriginals]], the [[Cordillera autonomy movement|Cordillera]] in the Philippines, the [[Greeks in Albania|Greek minority in Albania]], [[Kurdistan]], Palau, [[Taiwan]], and [[West Papua (province)|West Papua]].<ref name=":0">{{cite book|editor-last=Simmons|editor-first=Mary Kate|year=1996|title=Unrepresented Nations and Peoples Organization Yearbook 1995|publisher=Kluwer Law International|isbn=90-411-0223-X|oclc=36779050|pages=1–3}}</ref> A key UNPO goal was, and remains, to replicate the powerful message of nonviolence and interethnic tolerance in the face of oppression exhibited by the Tibetan people and championed by the [[14th Dalai Lama]] and to provide a forum in which others are encouraged and supported to adopt similar approaches.<ref name="UNPO">{{cite book|url=http://www.unpo.org/downloads/428.pdf|title=UNPO 20th Anniversary Publication: Twenty Years of Promoting Nonviolence, Human Rights and Self Determination|publisher=UNPO|year=2011|location=The Hague, Netherlands|access-date=6 September 2012|archive-date=5 August 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120805064717/http://www.unpo.org/downloads/428.pdf|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.gluckman.com/unpo.html|title=World's wanna-be republics find a home with UNPO|first=Ron|last=Gluckman|work=[[Asiaweek]]|year=1998|access-date=4 November 2010|archive-date=25 November 2010|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101125105456/http://gluckman.com/unpo.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

UNPO chose for its founding headquarters in 1991 [[The Hague]] in the Netherlands because the city aimed at becoming the International City of Peace and Justice and hosts international courts like the [[International Court of Justice|International Court of Justice (ICJ)]] and [[International Criminal Court|International Criminal Court (ICC)]]. A Foundation was established in the Netherlands to provide secretarial support to the UNPO General Assembly and to carry out research and educational activities related to unrepresented peoples worldwide. The Foundation maintains a permanent presence before the European Union, United States and United Nations. It is funded by a combination of member contributions, donations from individuals, and project-based grants from foundations.{{cn|date=February 2021}}

== Aims ==
UNPO’s aim is to uphold the fundamental right to autonomy and [[self-determination]] for all peoples, striving for a world where every nation and people is heard, valued, and respected. It envisions a future where fundamental rights, including the freedom to determine political status and pursue economic, social, and cultural development, are guaranteed for all.

To achieve this, UNPO fosters solidarity and knowledge exchange among unrepresented peoples through a unique global platform. By strengthening cross-regional projects and engaging in dialogue with the international community, UNPO contributes to building a peaceful, democratic, equitable, and sustainable world. The platform ensures that the voices of unrepresented peoples are not only heard but valued in global forums, empowering nations and peoples to fully realize their potential within a just and inclusive society.

UNPO’s work emphasizes the necessity of [[Nonviolent resistance|non-violent resistance]] against oppression, while also focusing on the inclusion of underrepresented groups, particularly youth and women, in decision-making processes. By strengthening democratic values, spreading the principles of [[Mahatma Gandhi|Gandhian]] non-violence, and advocating for human rights, the organization empowers members to preserve their cultural identities and contribute to global discussions on pressing environmental and geopolitical challenges. Through strategic partnerships with like-minded organizations, academia, and international actors, UNPO raises awareness of human rights abuses and supports members in having their voices heard on the world stage.<ref name="UNPO"/>

Although UNPO members often have different goals, they have one thing in common: they are generally not represented diplomatically (or only with a minor status, such as observer) in major international institutions, such as the [[United Nations]] (UN). As a result, their ability to have their concerns addressed by the global bodies mandated to [[human rights defender|protect human rights]] and address conflict is limited.<ref name="UNPO"/>

UNPO is dedicated to the five principles enshrined in its [[Covenant (historical)|Covenant]]:

1) The equal right to [[self-determination]]:
Self-determination is a fundamental human right, allowing peoples to shape their own political, cultural, and social future, ensuring that all voices are heard in decision-making processes.

2) Adherence to the internationally accepted [[human rights]] standards as laid down in the [[Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action]] and other international instruments:
Human rights are universal norms designed to protect all people from political, legal, and social abuses, regardless of ethnicity, nationality, or legal status.

3) Adherence to the principles of [[democracy|democratic]] pluralism and rejection of [[totalitarianism]] and religious intolerance:
Democratic pluralism is an inclusive, participatory system where governance is accountable, transparent, and responsive to the people. It embraces diversity, celebrates different cultures, and promotes political inclusion through knowledge, freedom of thought, and openness to differing viewpoints.

4) Promotion of [[non-violence]] and the rejection of [[terrorism]] as an instrument of policy:
Non-violence is the rejection of violent actions to achieve political goals. UNPO encourages members to adopt peaceful resistance and promote inter-ethnic tolerance in response to oppression.

5) Protection of the [[Environmentalism|natural environment]]:
Environmental protection is about preserving habitats and resources that protect cultures. [[Indigenous peoples|Indigenous]] and local communities, as guardians of traditional ecological knowledge, are best positioned to safeguard their environment and way of life.

All members are required to sign and abide by the UNPO Covenant.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://unpo.org/section/2/1|title=UNPO: UNPO Covenant|website=UNPO|access-date=21 December 2019|archive-date=15 November 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191115101506/https://unpo.org/section/2/1|url-status=live}}</ref> UNPO members are required to be [[nonviolence|nonviolent]].<ref name="Bob">{{Cite book|title=The Marketing of Rebellion: Insurgents, Media, and International Activism|first=Clifford|last=Bob|publisher=[[Cambridge University Press]]|year=2005|pages=47–48, 76–77}}</ref>
