Mission statement:	The Imperial Kingdom Of Nubia (I.K.O.N.) primary focus is to address critical issues that affect Indigenous Nubian peoples in particular forced assimilation, forced relocation, health and focusing on the overall well being of the Nubian communities. We acknowledge the fact that violent crimes, forced relocation and genocide has been perpetrated against indigenous people worldwide and has become a matter of global insecurity, this creates generational trauma which has resulted to symptoms of (P.T.S.D.) Post traumatic stress disorder. Our objective is to address this pandemic in constructive and life enhancing ways while implementing the U.N.D.R.I.P. We intend to seek alternative approaches to enable indigenous peoples to make positive life choices through self identification as defined in the U.N.D.R.I.P and in the context of generational awareness and re-evaluation of self as an extension of Indigenous Nubian culture. It is our intended purpose to contribute to the resolution of this global dilemma as a facilitator of constructive change through the preservation of Nubian culture paying close attention to women an children. The Imperial Kingdom Of Nubia (I.K.O.N.) will engage in dialogue referencing the U.N.D.R.I.P. with experienced, qualified plenary groups or individuals that share our concerns about the immediate environment of violence and fear among indigenous peoples worldwide in particular; Nubia.
