CANO CORREA, Claudia et al. The Yukpa: Doubly Confined Mobile People. COVID-19 and Self-Government in the Serranía of Perijá (Resguardo Iroka, Cesar, Colombia). Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2023, vol.59, n.3, pp.70-100.  Epub 01-Set-2023. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.2426.

In a collaborative research work, we address the self-government measures that the Yukpa people of the Iroka territory (serranía de Perijá, Colombia) put into motion to face the COVID-19 pandemic. The contingency implied for them a double confinement: on the one hand, the restrictions imposed by the Colombian authorities aimed at curb­ing contagion and, on the other hand, that produced by the progressive reduction of their lands, the processes of dispossession, expulsions and multiple long-standing violence on their ways of life. In this context of changes, the Yukpa took governmental actions that vitalized their knowledge, projects and programs to face autonomously an emergency that threatened even more their survival.
