Abstract
<jats:p>The chapter examines sexual violence against indigenous girls and adolescents in the Brazilian Amazon, focusing on the states of Amazonas and Pará between 2018 and 2022. It highlights how historical, cultural, and structural factors such as racism, poverty, and geographic isolation intensify the vulnerability of this population. The study presents original data revealing high rates of violence, primarily rape, which mostly occurs within the home and is often perpetrated by people known to the victims. It also exposes underreporting and weaknesses in the protection network, worsened by the distance from specialized services and the lack of adequate public policies. The text calls for integrated and culturally sensitive strategies that involve local leadership to prevent violence and ensure the effective protection of the rights of indigenous children and adolescents, emphasizing the urgent need for an ethical and collective commitment to break cycles of violence and social exclusion.</jats:p>
