The Indigenous Ketagalan Boulevard protest is an ongoing protest in Taiwan started on Ketagalan Boulevard in Taipei City by Taiwanese aborigines in February 2017 asking for more official recognition of land as traditional territories,[1] in particular for the possibility of private land to also be designated as indigenous territory, which was not allowed for by the February 2017 regulations brought forward by the governmental Council of Indigenous Peoples.[2]
Some more prominent figures who have led the protests are activist Panay Kusui (巴奈·庫穗), her husband Nabu Husungan Istanda (那布) and documentary filmmaker Mayaw Biho (馬躍·比吼).[1][3] One of the movements' slogans is "No one is an outsider" (Chinese: 沒有人是局外人).[4][5]
