Our rights
Description
Our Rights outlines the rights guaranteed to indigenous people by the 1988 Constitution of Brazil: right to land, health, education in their own language and free organization of their communities. Statements from the leader of the Federation of Indigenous Organizations from Rio Negro (FOIRN) and leaders from indigenous tribes such as Kaiowá, Kaxinawá, Yanomami, Ashaninka and Kaingang reiterate the need for this legislation to be enforced on a practical level, while praising its respect for cultural differences.
