It presents an analysis of the context to understand and eradicate the different expressions of violence against indigenous, such us armed conflicts and militarization and the impacts of extractive industries, among others.

It also presents a series of recommendations addressed to international organizations and international cooperation agencies, States, and the indigenous organizations themselves to tackle this problem from its multiple dimensions and actors.
