Guatemala: indigenous groups create their own party for 2015 elections

Indigenous and campesino organizations met in Chimaltenango, Guatemala, where they declared their desire to create their own political party. This party would strive to advance the rights and long-neglected agenda of indigenous people, and allow them to participate in the country's 2015 general elections. The Maya-Quiche leadership states that the party's goal is to "move towards a plurinational state of free determination." teleSUR.
