Indigenous Peoples in Argentina: 'We are strangers in

our own country'
"We want to live as human beings. We don’t want to be considered as strangers in our own country, poor
or useless. We want to live without discrimination. We don’t want blood shed, we just want to reclaim our
community,” said to Amnesty International Félix Díaz, leader of the Qom indigenous community of Potae
Napocna Navogoh (La Primavera), in the province of Formosa, Argentina.

Over the last few years state and private interests, especially those of the agribusiness and extractive
industries, have built up enormous barriers between Argentina’s native population and their rights to their
traditional lands. The UN Special Rapporteur on Indigenous Peoples has criticised the lack of
consultation with the communities that may be affected by development projects and exploitation of
natural resources.
In November 23, 2010, La Primavera’s people blocked the 86 National Route for four months, to protest
against the building of a National University on what they understood to be their ancestral lands. Police
violently broke up the protest, shooting at those gathered on the road. The episode ended tragically, with
a protester and a policeman dead, several injured and some houses burned down.
On October 12, 2008, Javier Chocobar, a member of the Pueblo Diaguita, in Tucumán province, was
shot dead while trying to stop the removal of his community by a local landowner. Although three people
were charged with his death, the trial has not started yet.

In spite of the enormous challenges and violence faced by Argentina’s indigenous peoples, they refuse to
give up their claim to their ancestral lands.

"The land is our life. From it we obtain the food and medicines we need. It provides us with the natural
resources to make our houses, for our livelihoods. Without the land, we the indigenous people will lose
our spiritual roots," sums up Félix Diaz.

Argentina’s Indigenous Communities Want
Their Land Back
For nearly nine months now, 25 representatives from Argentina’s indigenous communities — Qom, Pilagá,
Wichi, and Nivaclé — have camped at the heart of Buenos Aires calling for a meeting with President
Cristina Fernández de Kirchner to demand the restitution of land they claim once belonged to them.
Their encampment is located a few blocks away from the Ministry of Social Development and the
governor’s mansion. Banners with inscriptions of resistance and flags with the colors of the indigenous
communities also proudly garnish the area.
The group’s leader, Félix Díaz, explained several months ago that they are at the campsite to demand the
government’s return of land stolen from them decades ago. They also request, in reference to the right to
self-determination, that the government notify them in matters concerning natural resources and
compliance with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
“The government has searched for a way to divide the people,” Díaz. “In 1979, we were dispossessed,
when the province transferred our indigenous territory to the National Parks. We lost 50 hectares of land,
which was very critical to us. No one knew how to lead the commission, because the tribe’s chief didn’t
know how to read or write. Our chief unknowingly signed some papers, which ultimately transferred a
part of our land to the government. He didn’t know what he was doing.”
“The Land Is Our Land”
Narciso Sanagachi, leader of the encampment demands for the restitution of land. Sanagachi says that
what they request is the government returning the territories that originally belonged to his ancestors.
“The territory is ours; it belongs to all of the indigenous peoples. There was 5,000 hectares before the
governor of Formosa stole 1,500 hectares in order to sell it. Now they want to take all of our land again to
sell it. That’s why we are here. We are fighting.”

He also says that the governor of Formosa province, Gildo Insfrán, wants to make deals “with other
countries.”

“We don’t have title to the property [of our territory], because in that epoch the government never gave the
tribe’s chief title to the territory. Now, people enter the area without permission, because there is no title.
But it was always our land.” Sanagachi adds.

The Solution: Property Rights

Writer and judge Ricardo Rojas tells the PanAm Post that these groups are seeking for a way to have their
territories recognized, because they were traditionally part of their lands, but that their communities
lacked the concept of property rights.

“I don’t know if title to property is of any interest to them,” he says. “How do we assure them that they can
continue living there? I don’t think they want title in order to sell it. The idea is to recognize the territory as
theirs. I imagine you could resolve the issue with a land reservation as the United States did, although
they created reservations for the purpose of surveying the land. Here, we would do it to guarantee the
lands remain with the indigenous people,” Rojas explains.

“They don’t have rights of registered properties. In theory, the lands are public lands, and the Chaco
government [and Formosa] has taken it from them. It’s a problem with no easy solution, because the land
value has increased. That’s why the only solution they have is to establish rights to property, whether it’s
a reservation or granting the land to them individually. Otherwise, the government will continue taking it,”
he concludes.
