Stewardship of the Amazon jungle and the people who live and care for the more than human beings who live there too, is critical for life on Earth. Deep in the Peruvian Amazon, the Shipibo-Konibo people carry knowledge found nowhere else — plant medicine, nature’s wisdom, and a worldview where art and healing are one. 🌿

Through our partnership with Bari Wesna, we’re honored to help preserve and share these living traditions, led by the Shipibo-Konibo community itself.

Photos by our documentation partner capture magnificent moments of the color, the craft, the quiet dignity of daily life alongside sacred ceremony. 📸

For many years, Tribal Trust Foundation has walked alongside the Monpa — the original peoples of Bhutan’s Black Forest — in their own effort to keep their language, wisdom, and way of life alive for future generations.

The Monpa asked TTF to help them preserve their ancient culture, rooted in living in harmony with nature and each other. We were the first organization to support their cultural preservation initiatives, beginning over 12 years ago.

In our 30th anniversary year, we are humbled to continue this sacred partnership. Ancient wisdom is not the past — it is the medicine the world needs now. 📷 archives and 🙌

Then came Ocean Symphony — standing on a small boat off Baja California, playing double bass through underwater speakers while humpback whales sang back. Filmed by . Lots of tears.

We were also honored to witness the HOMEGROWN Indigenous & Global Stories filmmaker showcase — a powerful partnership between and amplifying underrepresented voices from the Mountain West. Exactly the stories our world needs.

This is our medicine too at Tribal Trust Foundation. And next year? We hope to bring our own film to these mountains. 🙏
