Indigenous Mobility, Urbanization and Participation in Latin America

Many Indigenous Peoples are on the move, with cities representing a primary destination. This may be due to territorial displacement, degradation, conflict or exploitation or to other socio-economic and environmental factors. Internal and transnational migration and mobility trends are particularly evident in the case of Latin America. But also in Europe, Indigenous transnational migrants from Latin America make up salient share of the migrant population. This has led to an increasing number of “urbanized Indigenous migrants” as they have been framed by Tomaselli in [this Eurac’ project](https://www.eurac.edu/en/institutes-centers/institute-for-minority-rights/projects/u-i-mir).
