Uncontacted peoples around the world avoid all contact with outsiders. Survival stands by their decision to reject contact. This week we've been highlighting key cases we're campaigning on. #UncontactedPeoplesWeek Some reasons why uncontacted people reject contact is often either because they or their ancestors were decimated by forced contact, leading to epidemics, attacks, violence, and land theft. Stand with uncontacted peoples. Sign the pledge for their survival today: svlint.org/UncPledgeFB

It may be the end of #UncontactedPeoplesWeek, but at Survival we're continuing the fight. We’ll always stand with #uncontacted people and their right to reject contact. Here Kamutaja tells her peoples' story of contact and why it's important to fight for the survival of her uncontacted relatives. It’s a fight uncontacted people around the world and many of their contacted relatives are leading every day. Stand with uncontacted peoples: svlint.org/UncPledgeFB | Survival International
