Indigenous territories are proven to have the lowest rates of deforestation and some of the richest biodiversity in the Amazon. But without formal demarcation, these lands are vulnerable to illegal logging, mining, and land grabbing.

At GC NO Amazônia, Indigenous leaders stressed the urgent need for Brazil to accelerate the demarcation process — a legal recognition that secures Indigenous rights and protects forests for generations to come.

President Lula has pledged to defend Indigenous rights and recently recognized new Indigenous lands. This is progress — but the pace must increase to protect communities and ecosystems under threat right now.
