Unfortunately, the world seems to have forgotten us. Donations are not enough to meet our urgent needs. We desperately need $3,000 to face this harsh winter, to buy warm clothes, blankets, mattresses, and a tent. I hope my voice reaches every kind heart. By God, this winter is unbearably difficult. 💔😞

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.

“These are what I would call silent #genocides — there are no TV crews, no #journalists. But they are happening, & they’re happening now,” said Fiona Watson, Survival’s research & advocacy director, who has worked on #IndigenousRights for >3 decades.
The issue often receives little priority from governments, which critics say see uncontacted #IndigenousPeoples as politically marginal because they don’t vote & their territories are often coveted for #logging, #mining & #oil extraction.
