Couple of days late this but here is a story of the restoration of #Uluru to Traditional Owners

Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa handback a symbol of land rights 40 years on

When you drive towards Uluṟu and see the stark, red monolith on the horizon, or stand at its base and look up at its striking, powerful enormity, time stands still.

#UncontactedIndigenous peoples & efforts to protect them

From the depths of Brazil’s Amazon to Indonesia’s rainforests, some of the world’s most isolated peoples are being squeezed by #roads, miners & drug traffickers—a crisis unfolding far from public view or effective state protection.

Public debate is also shaped by #stereotypes — some romanticize them as “lost tribes,” while others view them as barriers to #development.

Survival’s research concludes that half of these groups “could be wiped out within 10 years if governments & companies do not act.”

#UncontactedIndigenous peoples are not “lost tribes” frozen in time, Watson said. They are contemporary societies that deliberately avoid outsiders after generations of #violence, #slavery & #disease.

“They don’t need anything from us. They’re happy in the forest. They have incredible knowledge & they help keep these very valuable forests standing—essential to all humanity in the fight against #ClimateChange,” Watson said.

Survival’s research shows that >95% of the world’s uncontacted #IndigenousPeoples live in the #Amazon, with smaller populations in South & Southeast Asia & the Pacific.

A new report by #SurvivalInternational, a London-based #IndigenousRights organization, attempts one of the broadest tallies yet, identifying at least 196 #UncontactedIndigenous groups in 10 countries, primarily in South American nations sharing the #AmazonRainforest. Released Sunday, the report estimates that nearly 65% face threats from #logging, ~40% from #mining & ~20% from #agribusiness.
