However, turning to sanctions, according to a survey he conducted in 10 police districts, only 4 per cent of the murders committed are solved, and only for the highest levels of society. The Secretariat assists in the training of police officers, to make them aware of their racist approach. Quilombos 23. Article 68 of the transitory provisions of the Constitution states that the remaining members of the quilombo communities who occupy their lands have definitive ownership of those lands and therefore the State will grant them the respective property titles. According to other provisions, quilombos should also be protected as “Cultural Afro-Brazilian Territory”. Decree 4887 of November 2003 regulates the process of recognition of the quilombos, recognizing the principle of self-identification of the populations, who themselves determine whether they are part of a quilombo, in conformity with the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, 1989 (No. 169). 24. The Palmares Foundation, in charge of identifying quilombos and carrying out their legal defence, is very concerned about the increased violence towards these communities. The Government is committed to the process of recognition. Currently 2,250 quilombo communities have been identified and 270 land transfers have been made benefiting 400 communities, as a result of the Programa Brasil Quilombola. The Government, however, does not react sufficiently to the violence surrounding this process, which is perpetuated by landowners who are unwilling to hand over land to the quilombo communities. Also, the judiciary is often not willing to recognize the lands because of racial prejudice: the Foundation is carrying out sensitization activities for the judiciary. The indigenous communities 25. In 1910, the Indian Protection Service was established to protect the interests of the Indians, which is now called Fundação Nacional do Indio or the National Indigenous Foundation (FUNAI). Its president indicated that FUNAI has five lines of work: (a) Demarcation and consolidation of Indian land. In this field Brazil has progressed more than any other country of Latin America: 22 per cent of the Amazon and 12 per cent of the Brazilian territory is demarcated and registered as Indian land. In some areas problems persist, where Indians have lost their land and are confined to small tracts of land, and local governments are reluctant to give the land back. He concluded that 12 per cent of Brazil’s land is enough and no more can be given to the Indians; (b) Protection of Indian’s health through the Fundação Nacional de Saúde (FUNASA) (National Health Foundation). The section of the Ministry of Health in charge of Indian health, which provides health services in Indian villages; (c) Education: the public system being of a poor level, FUNAI pays the fees of 2,000 Indian students to attend private schools; (d) The promotion of a sustainable economy fostering the survival of Indian villages: on this point, legislation would be needed to allow Indians to exploit their mining resources; and (e) The promotion of the participation of Indians in FUNAI (700 Indians out of 2,000 civil servants) and in public life: presently, Indians manage only four municipalities. There is no Indian parliamentarian or Governor, although there was one Indian Federal Deputy from 1983 to 1987 (Cacique Juruna).
