Guaranteeing indigenous people's rights in Latin America. Progress in the past decade and remaining challenges. Summary (original) (raw)

The paper discusses the progress made and challenges faced in guaranteeing indigenous people's rights in Latin America over the past decade. While there has been significant economic and social development, indigenous populations remain the most disadvantaged groups due to historical discrimination and socio-economic inequalities. The report highlights the importance of integrating indigenous rights into policy, particularly in the context of natural resource governance, and emphasizes the need for a shift from 'new deals' to 'new covenants' between states and indigenous peoples.
