📅 8 Febrüari 2018 📍 Brazil

Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court rejected a constitutional challenge to Decree 4,887/2003, preserving the administrative process for identifying and titling quilombola lands. The ruling strengthened a route to collective land recognition rooted in the 1988 Constitution. It was a legal safeguard, not a completed title or compensation award; communities still face delays and disputes.
