A bi-annual journal which presents a unique source of news and analysis relating to Indigenous issues in Meso and South America from Indigenous peoples' perspectives.

This spring, SAIIC published the Ecojustice and Health: Indigenous Communities at Risk issue of Abya Yala News, which featured articles on the effects of the mining and nuclear industries on Indigenous communities, bilingual education in Ecuador, and Indigenous organizing in Chiapas.
