Popis: Latin American countries exhibit varying social structures and constitutions. The recent displacements of Venezuelan indigenous populations have strained access to rights and social goods in host societies. In Brazil, extant legislation acknowledges the rights of indigenous populations linked to their origins. International displacements in the Amazon region raise issues of discrimination, rights violations, and demands for national states. This article analyzes the implications of indigenous migration on education rights. Reviewing legal mechanisms, we identified gaps in access outlined in national and international agreements. Current legal discourses focus on intercultural and bilingual education but lack anti-racist actions. We propose four recommendations for addressing the migration of Venezuelan indigenous peoples to Brazil: reevaluate policies and laws; foster interinstitutional dialogue; promote international cooperation; prioritize intercultural and anti-racist education to respect and promote cultural contributions of indigenous, Afro-descendant, and migrant populations.
