"We urge the Peruvian government to act fast"

The President of ORPIO (Organization of Indigenous Peoples of the East) Jorge Perez Rubio in Peru calls for action to push the Peru Congress to approve a new law that would keep logging, mining, oil and gas companies out of uncontacted tribes' reserves. It's vital for the uncontacted tribes' survival.

Tribal Voice is a project by Survival International, the global movement for tribal peoples. More than one hundred and fifty million people in over sixty countries live in tribal societies.

From the Amazon to the Kalahari, from the jungles of India to the Congo rainforest, Tribal Voice gives them a platform. They experience appalling racism and genocidal violence. Their lands and resources are stolen for profit. Their ways of life are being deliberately and systematically destroyed.

Here they speak out about what matters to them; watch, listen, and get involved: svlint.org/TribalVoice
