Tribal Wisdom Foundation
At Tribal Wisdom we support Traditional Knowledge Holders and Indigenous Wisdom Keepers to keep transferring their knowledge.
Every year, the Tribal Wisdom Foundation selects a cause to raise funds for. This is an exciting high intensity period in which we raise as much as possible for an initiative where traditional knowledge, ancestral wisdom, ancient ceremony and natural medicine healing is at the core.
In the past, we raised funds for the launch of the website, an Indigenous (Adivasi) Farming Coop in India, a Healing House for the ǂNū-khoë Peoples in Namibia, and a Traditional Herb Garden in Curaçao. We have also supported the crowdfunding campaign facilitated by the Embassy of the Earth for the livelihood and cultural protection of the White Mountain Community with the Maasai in Kenya and Tanzania. And we joined efforts for the KIVA Pilgrimage with Raices de la Tierra, enabling a delegation of Wisdom Keepers to seed the global prayer for peace in five continents.
Let’s face it, it’s hard to raise funds for projects, so we carefully select those who are already on a roll, and where we know the people personally. And we also want to have some fun with this!
So in 11.11 we launch and play with the the number 1111 (our target) by asking 11 friends to donate €11, $11, 111 or 1111 pesos or whatever is appropriate in local currency:-)
This year we join forces with SUARY Association to support the TUBÚ HɄMMɄRIMASA Nation with the materialization of the big House of Dawn in Colombia. A collective and physical space, where Elders and Wise men and women can transmit, experience and practice healing stories, songs, dances and all their wisdom that accompanies our relationship with nature and life.
The proposal comes as a response to the longing of a nostalgic, chaotic and disordered society.
Let's celebrate these lively learning spaces where traditional knowledge is honoured, and indigenous practices are revived.
