🤔 How do we know the names of uncontacted groups?
A lot of the time we don’t actually know. Their contacted Indigenous neighbors might give them a name, or a name might be given based on their geographical location.

The Awá Indigenous people in Brazil have their own patrol group called the Awá Guardians 🏹
They protect their rainforest for their people, inc the uncontacted Awá.
Illegal logging is the main problem they're facing, but they won’t give up. Indigenous lands must be in Indigenous hands.

💥 But boards don’t lie!
Big conservation isn’t led by activists. It’s governed by finance, extractive industries, and corporate power. When the same people who profit from environmental destruction sit on conservation boards...

We're very sad to hear of the death of an old friend, Geraldo Kuesithere Yanomami.
Geraldo was one of a group of Yanomami Indigenous people who pushed for the demarcation of the Yanomami territory in the Brazilian Amazon. We send our heartfelt condolences to Geraldo’s family & the Yanomami people.

We’re told conservation NGOs protect nature. But many work like an industry.
Fortress conservation pushed by big NGOs has meant land grabs, evictions & Indigenous rights violations.
Nature protection must go hand-in-hand with defending the peoples who protect it.
