Hugo Jamioy Juagibioy is a poet, cultural and oral literature proponent, and Indigenous human rights activist from the Kamentsa People of Putamayo, Colombia. He has performed as a crowd favorite invitational featured poet in festivals throughout Latin America, has read in Italy, Spain, and the United States. His poetry is heavily demonstrative of Indigenous thought and philosophy, its relevance to humanity is well-received and testifies to the right for Indigenous permanence and sustainability in a time where humanity has injured the planet in its taking of so many indigenous lives/people from the landscape of origin they serve to protect. His people have bore the burden of the unwanted in a genocidal war upon them throughout his life. The International Festival of Poetry in Medellín welcomes him year after year to please the crowds upward in the thousands who hang on his every word during presentation performances.
