GUARDIANS

Teachings from the Forest with the Indigenous Huni Kuin Women of the Amazon

Online Study Program

Have you ever felt curious to learn not just with Indigenous people, but especially with the women?

To explore what it really means to be a guardian in this time in history - of land, of the natural world, of values and of a shared dream for humanity?

And learn from Indigenous cultures how we can come back to our own ancestral ways and our own communion with spirit?

Maybe you you have sat in ceremony with people of the forest. But have you deeply listened to the women whose lineage protects the medicines from the Amazonian Rainforest since generations?

This online study program invites you into a space of listening and learning with Indigenous Huni Kuin women from the Brazilian Amazon, their partnering NGO and cross-cultural researcher, Alisa Reimer. Through video lectures, a curated library with interviews, documentaries, literature, study impulses and other exclusive materials, we explore ways of knowing that emerge from forest, lineage, ritual, and resistance.

Anchored in the voices of women who carry ancestral memory and contemporary vision, this journey offers an encounter with living knowledge that is both deeply rooted and urgently relevant.

The Huni Kuin

The Huni Kuin are an Indigenous people of the Amazon, living in Acre, Brazil, and neighboring Peru, whose culture is deeply rooted in the Amazon rainforest. After first contact in the early 20th century, they faced violence, displacement, and the threat of cultural and physical eradication. Today, they actively protect their ancestral knowledge, spiritual traditions, and land. The Huni Kuin women are cultural leaders: artists, healers, and guardians of memory who use their practices to strengthen community and resist erasure.
