** Protect the Protectors, Defend the Defenders
------------------------------------------------------------
The latest Cultural Survival Quarterly ([link removed]) issue focuses on stories of a few of the many Indigenous environmental defenders who put their lives at risk to protect the planet and secure the rights of their Peoples. Indigenous defenders face a double threat: being Indigenous and defending rights and responsibilities to care for the environment. According to a Global Witness 2022 report, almost 40 percent of murdered environmental defenders were Indigenous, a disproportionately high figure given that Indigenous Peoples comprise roughly 6 percent of the global population. Cultural Survival’s noncomprehensive data shows 77 Indigenous defenders were murdered only in 2023 in Latin America, one of the most dangerous regions to be an Indigenous rights and environmental defender. Three out of four assassinations of environmental defenders take place in Latin America.

** Protegiendo a los protectores, defendiendo a los defensores
------------------------------------------------------------
El último número deCultural Survival Quarterly ([link removed]) se centra en las historias de algunos de los numerosos defensores ambientales Indígenas que arriesgan sus vidas para proteger el planeta y garantizar los derechos de sus pueblos. Los defensores indígenas se enfrentan a una doble amenaza: ser Indígenas y defender los derechos y responsabilidades de cuidar el medio ambiente. Según un informe de Global Witness de 2022, casi el 40 por ciento de los defensores ambientales asesinados eran Indígenas, una cifra desproporcionadamente alta si se tiene en cuenta que los pueblos indígenas representan aproximadamente el 6 por ciento de la población mundial. Los datos no exhaustivos de Cultural Survival muestran que 77 defensores Indígenas fueron asesinados solo en 2023 en América Latina, una de las regiones más peligrosas para los defensores de los derechos Indígenas y del medio
ambiente. Tres de cada cuatro asesinatos de defensores ambientales tienen lugar en América Latina.
Únase a nosotros para una conversación con defensores Indígenas de la tierra.
