Supporting Indigenous Peoples to Defend Amazonia

The article describes the process that gave rise to the indigenous umbrella organisation and explains what gives them their potential for autonomous action in the face of neo-extractivism and neo-colonialism. It then sets out and explains the key demands of the first peoples of the Amazon region. In the process it also highlights the roles and demands of indigenous women's organisations. The second part of the article deals with the great importance of global solidarity networks in view of the extreme danger facing the Amazon region and its consequences for the first peoples in particular. This section also includes a theological reflection on the issue.
The article that follows is primarily, but not exclusively, written from the perspective of Peru, where I live and work. In Peru I have been for years in contact with the two first or indigenous peoples, the Awajun and Wampi, of the northern Amazon region. As a rsult of my work I was invited to take part in the Amazon synod held in Rome in 2019.
