Understand the right to self-government of indigenous and ethnic peoples, like a materialization of their right to self-determination. The Indigenous National Raizal Authority (INRA) is the latest expression of the self-government of the Raizal People, reviving their ancestral political institution that for some reason was marginated.  INRA started its establishment with the Board of Spiritual Councilors (2012), and the first provisional Raizal Territorial Council (2013); other bodies are yet to be constituted.

Understand the history from the arrival of the puritans on the Seaflower ship to Old Providence in 1630, the relation with the indigenous people of the Miskito Coast and the enslaved Africans, followed by nearly 200 years of the dispute between England and Spain over the Archipelago of San Andres, Old Providence, and Santa Catalina, as well as the resistance of the ancestral settlers of the territory, and the reasons why Colombia (from South America) irrupted into the story of the Raizal People. Understand the foundation of the cultural identity of the Raizal People.
