Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, UNPFII
We are part of the indigenous
movement that influences national
states, international institutions or
indigenous organizations, helping to
improve the countries’ governance.
We contribute to the global women’s
movement with new elements,
articulating individual and collective
rights, a different way of focusing
women’s demands.

President of United Nations Permanent Forum on
Indigenous Issues, UNPFII
We have promoted that
specific indigenous women’s
problems are included
inside the UN; this helps us
to influence the creation of
specific national policies.
