Indigenous Youth and Women of the Americas Unite their Voices

The Indigenous Terra Madre Pueblos de América coming to Tlaola from February 21-24 will focus on the important role women and youth have in the future of indigenous communities, and the preservation of land and biodiversity for future generations.

“This gathering of indigenous delegates from communities around the Americas is a way to dignify our cultures and our identity. Our youth is being bombarded by the globalization of the world and the message from multinational companies telling us what to eat, how to think and act. However, our vision of the world is just as valid as any other one, and we want to reclaim our rights and our place in society,” said Dali Nolasco, Indigenous Terra Madre Network Coordinator for Latin America and the Caribbean.
