Native Peoples of Colombia

[Native Peoples in Colombia] image by António Martins-Tuválkin , 3 July 2009

Above flag is used for the native peoples of Colombia.
Jaume Ollé, 30 November 1996

This flag is listed under number 199 at the chart "Flags of Aspirant Peoples" [asp] as : "Indian Tribes of Colombia - Colombia."
Ivan Sache , 16 September 1999

This flag is the representation of primarily the Guambiano or Misak tribe, but it also represents Colombian South Western native peoples. The Guambiano people are mainly based in the Municipality of Silvia (Department of Cauca), but also on the Department of Huila. Cauca is one of Colombia's Departments that is most populated by native people.

Colombian Indigenous National Organization (ONIC)

[Colombian Indigenous National Organization] image by Eugene Ipavec, 8 May 2009

image by Eugene Ipavec, 16 June 2009

I've spotted the flag of the ONIC (Organización Nacional Indígena de Colombia, Colombian Indigenous National Organization) "an organization
representing the indigenous peoples of Colombia, who comprise some 800,000 people or approximately 2% of the population. The organization was founded at the first National Indigenous Congress in February 1982, in the Localidad (Suburb) of Bosa, part of Bogotá, with over 1,500 delegates from different indigenous and native groups of Colombia. It is an umbrella organization that hosts some 41 Regional Indigenous Councils around the country, including the CRIC
Sources: English.wikipedia and Spanish.wikipedia
The flag of this organization can be seen at the website of the ICANH (Instituto Colombiano de Antropología e Historia, Colombian Institute of Antropology and History, an organization that depends on the Ministry of Culture).
The flag is the Coat of Arms on an equally horizontally divided three-stripe flag, green (top), red (middle) and yellow (bottom). The Coat of Arms is found here:
The color scheme of the flag is exactly the same as one political party that endorses indigenous interests in Colombia, called ASI. ASI's official website is located here.

A variant of the flag of ONIC, is the logo on a white background.

Organización Indígena de Antioquia (Antioquia's Indigenous Organization)

[Organización Indígena de Antioquia] image by Eugene Ipavec, 03 April 2012

The OIA (Organización Indígena de Antioquia, Antioquia's Indigenous Organization)  was established in 1985 and represents the interests of the indigenous people of the Department of Antioquia  regarding autonomy, land, culture and unity. The OIA is affiliated to the ONIC

Esteban Rivera, 31 March 2012

Firstly I was confused where this logo was placed. This picture clearly shows that emblem is not placed at center of the flag, but on separation line of green and yellow stripes.
Zoltan Horvath, 01 April 2012

That is a strange seal placement (and it's not one of those 45-deg rotated seals either). I wonder if this isn't an upside-down Colombia-style 1:1:2 flag?.
Eugene Ipavec, 02 April 2012

I have found an other image taken during a demostration or something like this. It is clearly visible, that there are only three stipes , blue, green and yellow, and no more.  But stripes are equal, they do not follow the Colombian national flag pattern. However there are at least two versions of this flag, the emblem is centered of green stripe in this case.
Zoltan Horvath, 03 April 2012

Well, maybe not quite true. This is another shot of the same room, as far as I can tell. (Source: http://gunadule.blogspot.nl/p/plan-de-salvaguarda.html.)
The blue is visible at the top, which allows determining the width of the green stripe. But then from comparing that width with the yellow field, it's obvious that there's too much yellow there to be a stripe of the same height as the green.
I'd say the emblem is indeed on the separation line of green and yellow, but it's also placed in the centre as the yellow stripe must be twice the height of the green, and so would form the entire lower half of the flag.
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 17 November 2012

Plus, in the screen shot mentioned, would there really be that much yellow visible at the hoist if the emblem were 2/3rd down?
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 17 March 2013

Variant of OIA flag

[Organización Indígena de Antioquia] image by Zoltan Horvath, 01 April 2012

IMHO seems that can be a fourth stripe not visible in the photo (I suggest as colour the white or the red). Several indigenous flags in Colombia are of four stripes; someone of three stripes but, as pointed by Eugene the seal placement is very strange for a three striped flag.
In Flag Report #67 will be published about one hundred of indigenous organizations and anyone has a construction in Colombian pattern, but many are four striped or three striped with centered seal.
Jaume Ollé, 02 April 2012

Speculative variants of OIA flag:
In the indoor photo, the yellow was visible under the table, so no fourth stripe. My first gif from earlier and the two here attached after Jaume's suggestions are however speculative only.

Resguardo Indígena de Origen Colonial Gran Jardín is a local indian government in the Department of Narino. It has its own flag and emblem, described here https://docplayer.es/73777309-Un-trabajo-coordinado-por.html

The meaning of the colors of the flag of the Indigenous Reservation of Colonial Origin Great Garden of the Sierra: White the purity of the Indigenous of the Great Garden of the Sierra Azul Sky, water and skies Emerald Green the mountains adorned with the green carpet of the jungle Black the earth and oil Live Yellow the riches of the region The Eight-Pointed Star or Eight-Pointed Sun is the one that regulates the processes of our lives, it means the force that this transmits to each one of us, to protect us from darkness and thereby be a great fighter full of vitality both internally and externally. The eight-pointed star is a hidden symbol that represents the obtaining or achievement of two crowns. Each crown has four points and when joined in an inverted way they symbolize the union between heaven and earth. The four points of the crown below represent the four coordinates that lead to the earth and the four points of the crown above represent the four coordinates of entry to the heavens.
