How can YOU save the Nukak? 

Write a letter to the Colombian Government 

In the past, policies have been changed because of letters of concern sent to the government. Many of the letters campaigning for the protection of Nukak's and their rights have already motivated the government to create a reserve in 1993, and enlarge it in 1997. However, it

is still too small in size and the Nukak cannot practice their cultural ways of survival in this new land. 

​

Get involved by sending a letter supporting the protection of Nukak and their rights so that their lands are respected and can live there in a place where they can take part in cultural practices. Check out an example provided by Survival International by clicking on the button below! 

​

​

Make sure that the letter you are writing is polite.  It is best to send your letter by post, and you may use the fax numbers provided below 

​

Juan Manuel Santos

President of the Republic

Carrera 8 n. 7-26

Palacio de Nariño,

Santa Fe de Bogotá

Colombia
