ANMIGA

Description

The National Association of Indigenous Women Warriors of Ancestry (ANMIGA) it’s a result of a historical process of women’s fighting, led in defense of indigenous rights, in the constant process of mobilization of indigenous women involving all six brazilian ecosystems with their knowledge and traditions. We’re multiple fights, adding our voices for the maintenance of our people and communities, our ancestors territories and for the continuity of our way of living and taking care of the world. This fight echoes our six brazilian’s ecosystems and now wants to reach out to new ecosystems, waters and other body-territories. Members of the National Association of Indigenous Women’s Warriors of Ancestry (ANMIGA) will gather to discuss strategies and solutions to defend our territories, protect biodiversity, and advance climate solutions rooted in ancestral knowledge and practices. We want to bring to this event, the voices of indigenous women, the struggles we have been facing all over these centruries in our country and the need to speak our voices and echo our demands.
