Ancestral territory Nukanchipa Alpa Amukunapa Wasi of the Inga People: video by the Territorial Governance group of the Universidad Externado, with Robinson López, former president of ACIMVIP

The Territorial Governance working group of the Transdisciplinary Master's Programme in Sustainable Life Systems of the Universidad Externado de Colombia produced this video on the Ancestral Territory of the Inga People of Villagarzón, Putumayo, «Nukanchipa Alpa Amukuna Wasi Vida Mascarigridiru», which was published on YouTube on 8 November 2018 on the COICA Climate Change channel. The working group comprised seven people, among them Robinson López Descanse, former president of ACIMVIP.

For ACIMVIP, the Ancestral Territory Nukanchipa Alpa Amukunapa Wasi Vida Maskarigridiru is the territory that the Inga People set out to defend since the 2015 Mandate of the Elders, whose twentieth mandate, on territorial defence, calls for collective defence and for building the community's own pathway of environmental planning. After 25 years of struggle, in 2020 the State constituted a portion of that territory as a reservation through Agreement 113 of 28 January 2020 of the National Land Agency.
