Preservation of culture and autonomy
Uncontacted tribes have unique cultures and traditions that should be respected and preserved. Integration into modern society could lead to the loss of their cultural identity and autonomy.
Potential harm from outside contact
Contact with the outside world could expose uncontacted tribes to diseases, exploitation, and displacement. It is important to consider the potential harm that integration could bring to these vulnerable communities.
Respect for human rights and self-determination
Uncontacted tribes have the right to self-determination and should be able to decide their own fate. Respecting their autonomy and human rights means leaving them undisturbed unless they express a desire for contact with the outside world.
