At the Jubilee of Knowledge in Vatican City, the message of the Kogi was carried once again into a space of global dialogue.
José Manuel Sauna Mamatacan, representative of Kogi, and Dr. Vian Sharif, Trustee of the Tairona Heritage Trust and founder of NatureAlpha, spoke together about how ancestral wisdom and artificial intelligence can work side by side revealing and healing our relationship with the natural world.
Their presence, so soon after José Manuel’s audience with the King and now before the Pope, signals something profound:
the world is ready to listen.
Ready to hear the message of balance, of water, and of care for life that the Kogi have carried for centuries.
This message echoed in the words of Shizhuanative, who reminds us that healing begins in forgiveness and unity invites us all to walk differently:
to listen more deeply, to live with compassion, and to remember that the Earth is one living being, of which we are a part. From the Heart of the World to the heart of humanity the message is being heard.
If you feel called to walk with us, to help the Kogi share their wisdom and protect the living systems of the Earth, we invite you to reach out or support our work.
