Circle of the word

The “Circle of Words” is an innovative and collaborative space created by Pawanka Fund, dedicated to the exchange of knowledge among indigenous peoples worldwide. It functions as an inclusive and accessible school, offering free courses on topics of great relevance to the entire indigenous ecosystem. This space not only fosters learning and the transmission of ancestral knowledge but also promotes collective intelligence and Buen Vivir (Good Living). Collective intelligence allows indigenous communities to unite their knowledge and experiences to generate more effective and sustainable solutions to the challenges they face. The concept of Buen Vivir, fundamental in many indigenous cultures, is integrated into the courses of the “Circle of Words” to strengthen harmony with nature, community cohesion, and overall well-being. In this way, the “Circle of Words” not only enhances individual and community capacities but also contributes to the preservation and revitalization of the cultural identity of indigenous peoples.
