VERGEL BARRERA, Michael David  e  MARTINEZ MUNOZ, Liceth Ximena. INDIGENOUS WOMEN, SOCIAL INEQUALITY AND THE VIOLATION OF THEIR RIGHTS. Novum Jus [online]. 2021, vol.15, n.1, pp.251-275.  Epub 31-Jul-2022. ISSN 1692-6013.  https://doi.org/10.14718/novumjus.2021.15.1.11.

The rights violations indigenous women suffer as a result of daily situations and legal institutions that do not provide them necessary attention has been going on for some time. It is incomprehensible that the situations in which many indigenous women find themselves today are similar to those that occurred decades ago, and that efforts to eradicate violence have not had sufficient impact within indigenous communities. Thus, society must pay more attention to these issues, since indigenous women fulfill an important role in greater society, not only in their communities. The demand for equity and equality in political participation within and outside their communities is evident; their opinion must be valued, and they must have access to intrinsic rights for social development with guarantees that allow them to obtain, autonomously, different benefits that have been denied them for generations.

Palavras-chave : indigenous women; rights violations; violence; aggression; armed conflict; tradition.
