The Wampís Nation is an Indigenous autonomous territorial government in the northern Peruvian Amazon. Formally constituted to defend ancestral territory, rivers, and forests, the Wampís govern themselves through assemblies and representative councils rooted in ancestral knowledge and collective decision-making. Their process centers on territorial sovereignty, environmental defense, and resistance to extractivism, constituting a contemporary example of Indigenous self-determination and radical democracy in the Amazon region.
