The Indigenous Peoples of Colombia are diverse groups with rich cultural heritages, languages, and traditions. There are over 100 distinct Indigenous communities, including the Wayuu, Nasa, and Emberá, each with their own unique customs and social structures. These communities primarily inhabit regions such as the Amazon rainforest, the Andes mountains, and the Caribbean coast. Historically, Indigenous Peoples have faced challenges due to colonization, land dispossession, and violence. Today, many communities strive to preserve their languages and traditions while advocating for their rights and land. The Colombian government recognizes some Indigenous territories, allowing for self-governance and cultural preservation efforts.
