They threaten life, ecosystems and the transmission of traditional knowledge, and cause environmental as well as cultural and spiritual damage. With these projects come violence, deforestation (especially for freeways), renewed racism against indigenous peoples, the assassination of leaders and activists, population displacement, pollution, water contamination\u2026<\/p>\n<p>This violence is supported in particular by Canadian mining companies, and is now part of the global effort to provide the many resources (including copper) needed to shift to a &#8220;green economy&#8221;, at the expense of indigenous lives. In the face of these perils, the Inga community is organizing and resisting in many ways, for the protection of ancestral territories and the development of a culture of peace. To achieve this, the community needs your support.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>HOPE<\/b><\/h3>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;<i>Ingakuna Est\u00e9reo works as a space for dialogue and affirmation, to tell our own stories, for the empowerment of the realities we live in our territories, relaying the word of the elders.
