<p>This is a short piece about Augostina Mayan, an Awajún leader, situated within the larger context of land rights in Peru. Augostina's powerful activism has meant that she has been subjected to accusations and political violence, often gendered in their nature. The authors call for a recognition of the often gendered nature of violence against women human rights defenders and the need to protect them.</p>
