Help raise awareness about the Indigenous Mayangna Peoples

Mayangna Indigenous residents living in the UNESCO designated Bosawas Biological Reserve in what is known as Nicaragua are being forced to flee.

These communities are under attack by settlers who want the Bosawas forest for illegal logging and ranching. Homes have been burned, crops destroyed and leaders murdered.
