Resumen
La problemática   actual de los grupos   indígenas de Costa Rica no es investigada   integralmente, debido a su escasa población   y dispersión   de asentamientos, que se encuentran en sitios de difícil acceso, sin vías de comunicación.   Hay una indiferencia estatal hacia ellos, que están marginados   de políticas de desarrollo   social (salud, educación); se ignoran sus derechos y necesidades, les arrebatan    lo que poseen:  tierras, recursos   e identidad.   El indígena aún sufre atropello e irrespeto a su cultura y vive en precarias condiciones, con inseguridad en su propia   tierra, que se ve amenazada    por elementos externos, ajenos a sus intereses, ejemplo: por los madereros, mineros, finqueros, quienes destruyen el ecosistema donde   habitan, razón  de su vida y cultura.
