International community supports Maya rights

Intercontinental Cry published an article about the affirmation of Maya land in Belize and published a video from the celebration, urging Belize's government to accept the court's decision.

So did First People in an article that quotes Gregory Ch'oc, SATIIM's Executive Director saying: "It is very unfortunate when we have come this far to vindicate our human rights, that the government will challenge these human rights."

These leading indigenous rights organizations agree supporting - together with SATIIM a petition to "Urge Belize to Support Maya Land Rights", which we ask all supporters to sign.
