After years of red tape, the Peruvian government has still not signed into law several Indigenous territories which uncontacted and recently-contacted Indigenous people depend on for their survival. Putting off the protection of these Indigenous territories is immoral, illegal and genocidal.
The oil, gas and logging lobby in the region is extremely powerful. The Indigenous peoples of Peru need their allies all over the world to help them defend the lands of uncontacted, to allow them to survive.
Please act now for the most vulnerable peoples on the planet. Email the Peruvian government demanding that these Indigenous territories finally be signed into law and permanently protected, and calling for the expulsion of extractive industries from Indigenous territories. It’s the only way uncontacted people will be able to survive and thrive.
Your email will be sent to President of Peru Keiko Sofía Fujimori Higuchi, Minister of Culture Alberto Ismael Beingolea Delgado, Minister of the Interior César Augusto Astudillo Salcedo, and Minister of the Environment Vladimiro Huaroc Portocarrero.
