Ashaninka Community Councils

Ashaninka Community Councils are local decision-making bodies composed of Ashaninka Indigenous community members. They serve as platforms for managing land, resources, cultural preservation, and local development, ensuring community interests are represented. These councils facilitate participation in governance, support sustainable practices, and act as a liaison with government agencies and external organizations. Their goal is to empower Ashaninka communities by fostering self-governance, protecting their traditional rights, and promoting social, economic, and environmental well-being within their territories.
