Theme: International Day of Indigenous Peoples
Description
Traditional knowledge and culture are of paramount importance in the formation of Brazilian society and contact with these people can generate a recovery of the knowledge they hold.
The project’s educational intention is to celebrate the various Brazilian indigenous ethnicities, rescuing the importance of preserving and resisting ancestral knowledge in its relationship with its land, culture and society.
The storytelling project presented “Indigenous Tales, an experience of Indigenous ancestry”, using as an influence the book “Grandmother Spoke” by writer Daniel Munduruku, in which the boy Kaxiboremó tells what his daily life is like in the villages, his values and beliefs. It is at this moment that children/ teeangers will have contact with music, legends, vocabulary, customs, experiences, enabling a new look at indigenous peoples.
With Storytelling addressing such an important topic for land protection, we know that Indigenous Peoples play a crucial role in environmental preservation in Brazil, due to their deep connection and traditional knowledge of fauna and flora, enabling an environment conducive to rich discussions, debates and research on indigenous culture and ancestry, their contributions and influences.
