Greenpeace International, along with the Save the Pechora Committee and Iz’vatas, hosted an international conference “Arctic Oil: Exploring the Impacts on Indigenous Communities”, held August 14-16, 2012 in Usinsk, Russia. The conference explores the impacts of Arctic oil drilling on Indigenous communities. After hearing from speakers from Greenland to the Niger Delta, the group of 30 representatives wrote and signed on to a joint statement opposing offshore Arctic oil drilling, and demanding the government consult with them for rights to drill on their traditional land.
