We, The European Mapuche Coordinating, in close cooperation with organizations and communities of the Mapuche people - Wallmapuche, have decided to organize the "International Conference at The Hague, on the Observance of the Mapuche treaties concluded with the Chilean state." From May 4th, 2015, the International Court of Justice in The Hague, will start reviewing the jurisdiction over maritime claims submitted by the Plurinational State of Bolivia against the State of Chile. The State of Chile has consistently held that they "respects and complies the integrity of treaties agreed between the parties"; with this statement admitted, it is entirely appropriate to "demand with the same firmness, the fulfillment of the agreed and ratified "Treaties or Mapuche parliaments". We, The European Mapuche Coordinating, want to claim our full active participation to demand compliance with the "Treaties or Mapuche parliaments" the agree between the Chilean State and the Mapuche people at the conference that will carry out on May 4th and 5th of 2015 at The Hague. For thus it will remembered and reaffirmed our right to self determination as native people under international law, based on the right to self determination, the right to the land and its resources, recognition and application of Mapuche treaties and exercise the right to the free and an informed consent.
