what percentage of the world's population is indigenous
Indigenous peoples Precise estimates for the total population of the world's Indigenous peoples are very difficult to compile, given the difficulties in identification and the variances and inadequacies of available census data. The United Nations estimates that there are over 370 million indigenous people living in over 70 countries worldwide.[17] This would equate to just fewer than 6% of the total world population. This includes at least 5000 distinct peoples[18] in over 72 countries.
Indian Americans Indian Americans or Indo-Americans are Americans whose ancestry belongs to any of the many ethnic groups of the Republic of India. Indian Americans comprising 3,456,447 alone and 4,121,994 including mixed race Indian Americans[6][7] are the country's third-largest Asian group alone or in combination with other races after Chinese Americans and Filipino Americans, according to 2016 American Community Survey data.[6][7] The U.S. Census Bureau uses the term Asian Indian to avoid confusion with the indigenous peoples of the Americas commonly referred to as American Indians (or Native Americans, or Amerindians).
