The Permanent Forum welcomes the intent of Nicaragua in drafting legislation on territorial regulation of Indigenous territories.

It further urges Nicaragua to ensure that perpetrators are held to account through the justice system for the murders committed and for the destruction of property. Impunity is not an option.
