WHO ARE WE

We are a group of people that individually has been tracing a path working with First Nations at least for more than 5 years now, some for 10 years. We have many expertises and knowledge in different areas, and specially to work with native and traditional peoples from Brazil a very sensitive theme.

Each project has its own team and coordinations with a general coordination. We always count on at least a local producer who are already in studying and living with the native people we are working with.

The travelling crew is small so we can delve into the subject and the native people we are working with more easily. We all speak English/Portuguese/Spanish.

We are committed to the cause of serving and learning from our ancestral, keeping their knowledge with the occidental tools, offering a hand to integrate the community by learning how to use them so they are able to create their own content with their own views and understanding.
