indigenous politics

Indigenous politics refers to the governance, rights, and advocacy of Indigenous peoples concerning their land, culture, and self-determination. This includes the struggle for recognition of their rights, preservation of their traditions, and control over their resources. Indigenous political movements often aim to address historical injustices, promote sustainable development, and gain representation in governmental processes. These movements are crucial in asserting Indigenous identities and ensuring that Indigenous voices are heard in broader discussions about environmental, social, and economic issues, fostering respect and collaboration between Indigenous communities and other societal groups.
