An historic debt settled: recognition of indigenous rights in El Salvador
In El Salvador, almost 6% of the population is indigenous and
historically has suffered discrimination and oppression. In June this
year, however, the Legislative Assembly voted to reform the country’s
Constitution offering recognition of its indigenous peoples and a
commitment to the adoption of policies to safeguard their ethnic and
cultural identities: http://sm.ohchr.org/1qDrmLV
