Human Rights of Indigenous and Quilombola Women: A Governance Matter The project's objectives is to promote the rights of indigenous and quilombola women in Brazil. The project will be implemented in the border states of Maranhão and Pará with an expressive presence of both indigenous and quilombola communities living in forest areas (North and Northeast regions). UN Women draws on its strong partnerships with indigenous women’s networks sustained since 2014 through the “Voices of Indigenous Women” group and with quilombola’s CONAQ and will facilitate integration of their rights in governance processes, which directly affect them and their communities’ lives.
