Tierra Nativa
The Busuréliami vision came to Martin Chavez, in 1994. He received the name, “Makawi” (the Dove), and a sacred mission to inspire salvation of Ralámuli culture.
The overarching goal of the Busureliami Program is to revitalize the guidance of Nawésari, the ancestral knowledge to sustain harmony within self, community and Nature.
The first goal is to strengthen cultural identity, self-esteem, spiritual practice, academic performance and behavior of Tarahumara children.
The second goal is to re-awaken the spiritual practice, traditional governance and autonomy of the Ralámuli to advance recognition of their collective rights while maintaining harmony with the Spirits of Nature
