Chile's indigenous groups see the new constitution as a chance to gain recognition
Last October, millions of Chileans voted in favour of scrapping the country's constitution, which dates back to the repressive rule of Gen Augusto Pinochet.
Replacing it had been one of the demands made in nationwide protests which swept through the country in 2019.
This weekend, Chileans are being asked to choose the 155 members of the Constitutional Convention tasked with drawing up a new draft.
Not only will there be gender parity with half the seats reserved for women but 17 seats have also been set aside for representatives of Chile's indigenous groups, which make up around 12% of its 19 million inhabitants.
