Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG)

Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) refers to the crisis of disproportionately high rates of violence against Indigenous women and girls in Canada and the United States. Many Indigenous women go missing or are murdered, with systemic issues such as racism, social inequality, and lack of law enforcement resources contributing to this tragedy. It highlights the need for greater awareness, policy change, and support for Indigenous communities to ensure justice and safety. The movement advocates for accountability and prevention, emphasizing the importance of addressing the root causes of violence and protecting Indigenous lives.
