The real Guarani people, a fight for survival

For the Guarani, land is the origin of all life. But violent invasions by ranchers have devastated their territory and nearly all of their land has been stolen.
Guarani children starve and their leaders have been assassinated. Hundreds of Guarani men, women and children have committed suicide.



Act now to help the Guarani

Your support is vital for the Guarani’s survival. There are lots of ways you can help.
