Children of the land
Wichi Indigenous Community Honat Le Les
The Wichí Honat Le’Les community, based in the San Martín department of Salta, Argentina, is a indigenous group actively fighting for their rights and the preservation of their land.
The community, whose name translates to "Children of the Land," has faced significant challenges, including land dispossession, environmental degradation due to deforestation, and systemic neglect by the authorities.
