Muwaji and Iganani Suruwaha are back in Brasília, after a period of approximately six months in their tribe visiting relatives. Iganani has cerebral palsy and is a patient at the children's rehabilitation center at Sarah Hospital.
Since the beginning of 2005, Muwaji has fought for the life of her daughter. She has been fighting against infanticide, a tradition in her culture, as well as facing the differences and difficulties of city life, far from her relatives. However, she never gives up. Muwaji's fight is an inspiration to us all, and it was with her name that Congressman Henrique Afonso (PC - Brazilian Worker's Party - Acre State) started the "law project" that fights against the traditional practices that contradict the right to life for indigenous children.
