NEW: Uncontacted Indigenous Peoples: at the edge of survival book

“When I lived in the forest, I had a good life. Now if I meet uncontacted Awá I’ll say, ‘There’s nothing in the outside for you!’” Wamaxuá Awá, Brazil

From the forests of Amazonia to the islands of the Pacific, there are Indigenous peoples who choose to live without contact with outsiders.

Aware of the outside world, they reject contact and the continuing colonialism that steals their land and threatens their lives. Mining, logging, agribusiness, criminal gangs, extremist missionaries, even social media adventurers all push uncontacted peoples to the edge of survival. But they are resisting.

This report is the most comprehensive global survey of uncontacted peoples ever compiled. Packed with personal stories and hard facts, it draws on Survival’s unique re- search and decades-long relationships with Indigenous people and movements.

Highlighting the resilience and resistance of uncontacted peoples and their allies, it is a powerful call for action.
