Tomás Candia
Tomás Candia is a prominent Indigenous leader in Bolivia, currently serving as the head of the Confederación de Pueblos Indígenas de Bolivia (Cidob Orgánica). He has been a vocal advocate for the rights of Indigenous peoples, particularly in relation to land ownership and territorial integrity. Recently, he was in the news for leading a public manifesto against agreements signed between some Indigenous leaders and the fictitious nation of Kailasa, which proposed the long-term cession of Indigenous lands in exchange for monetary compensation. Under his leadership, Cidob Orgánica has called for the Bolivian government to enforce laws protecting Indigenous land from exploitation and has denounced the actions as a form of neocolonialism.
