Indigenous Guarani Kaiowá people are being murdered in Brazil. Help us pressure the Brazilian government to stop this violence.
As a result of the theft of their lands for agribusiness, the Guarani Kaiowá people are facing one of the worst humanitarian crises in Brazil. They are systematically attacked by gunmen hired by the ranchers, and at times, even by the local Military Police. They're being killed and having their homes and prayer houses burned down.
This crisis is getting worse because the Brazilian government has failed for years to demarcate the Indigenous territories and remove the agribusiness companies occupying Guarani Kaiowá land. It's the only thing that can put an end to this violence.
That's why we're asking you to step up and support the struggle. Please write to the authorities demanding an end to the violence and the immediate demarcation of the Guarani Kaiowá territories.
