An armed conflict is going on in this area between successive Indonesian governments and Papuan nationalists, which involves demands regarding the protection of the rights of indigenous peoples. Since 2001, a law on special autonomy has been in force in both provinces, which grants a number of rights to the inhabitants of this territory. However, Papuan nationalists say that this law is not implemented. The Indonesian authorities disagree with this opinion. The article presents both of these positions, as well as specific actions of the Indonesian government to improve the protection of the rights of indigenous peoples, which the author assumes are the result of pressure from the international community.}, doi = {10.4467/23538724GS.19.024.11869}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/gsaw/artykul/wyzwania-dla-ochrony-praw-ludnosci-rdzennej-w-papui-zachodniej} }
