RAZONES POR LAS CUALES ME ACOGI AL DERECHO DE ASILO
En los años 2008 y 2009 los pueblos indígenas amazónicos NOS MOVILIZAMOS DEMANDANDO la derogatoria de los decretos legislativos emitidos por Alan García y denunciando la violación de nuestro derecho a ser consultados, Como lo establece el Convenio 169 de la OIT. Como parte de este esfuerzo colectivo de los pueblos Logramos la derogatoria de cuatro decretos legislativos 1015, 1073,1064 y el 1090, considerados los más lesivos por atentar contra los derechos territoriales.
After detaining Indigenous leader Alberto Pizango upon his arrival at the Lima airport, Peruvian officials released him on his own recognizance. Public pressure from world citizens surely influenced this decision, which sets the stage for more respectful negotiations between Indigenous Peoples in Peru and the government.
If you have not yet sent a message, please do so. It is very important for the Peruvian government to know that the world is watching. See our action alert here.
