Awá Tribe In Brazil

EDM number 227 in 2012-13, proposed by Katy Clark on 19/06/2012.
Categorised under the topics of Ethnic groups and Latin America.

That this House expresses its concern at the plight of the Aw tribe in Brazil currently on the brink of extinction; notes that there are currently 360 contacted members of the Aw tribe with an estimated further 20 to 25 per cent uncontacted, and that their territories have been legally recognised; acknowledges its alarm at the current rates of deforestation of their forests, currently the highest rate of all indigenous reserves in the Amazon; and calls on the Government to urge its Brazilian counterparts to bring a halt to illegal logging and stop invasions of the Aw'sland.

This motion has been signed by a total of 36 MPs.
