Xucuru Indigenous People and its Members v. Brazil

This case is about the recognition, qualification, demarcation, and de- limitation of the ancestral lands of the Xucuru, an indigenous community in the State of Pernambuco, in the Brazilian Amazon. The Court found Brazil in violation of the American Convention due to the unduly long process to assign title to the Xucuru over their lands and for the failure to remove non-indigenous people from it.
