Individuals have joined the religion and institutions have been founded to serve Native Americans and have Native Americans serve on Bahá'í institutions.By 1963 Bahá'í sources claim members of some 83 tribes of Native Americans had joined the religion. In North America diversification is an ever-present theme in Bahá'í history. Native American Indians have been attracted to the Bahá'í Faith in increasing numbers since the 1940s; currently there are several thousand Indian and Eskimo Bahá'ís, especially in rural Alaska and among the Navajo and Lakota peoples. Among the Central and South American indigenous there are also substantial populations of native Bahá'ís. There is an estimate of some 8,000 Guaymi Bahá'is in the area of Panama, about 10% of the population of Guaymi in Panama. An informal summary of the Wayuu ( a tribe living in La Guajira Desert) community in 1971 showed about 1000 Bahá'ís. The largest population of Bahá'ís in South America is in Bolivia, a country whose population is estimated to be 55%–70% indigenous and 30%–42% Mestizo, with a Bahá'í population estimated at 206,000 in 2005 according to the Association of Religion Data Archives."@en }
