Indigenous rights activists are individuals or groups who advocate for the rights and recognition of Indigenous peoples. They work to protect the cultural, social, and political rights of these communities, often focusing on issues such as land rights, self-determination, and environmental protection. Their efforts aim to address historical injustices and promote equality. These activists often collaborate with organizations like the United Nations and participate in global movements to raise awareness about Indigenous issues. They seek to empower Indigenous communities by amplifying their voices and ensuring their perspectives are included in decision-making processes that affect their lives and lands.
