A lot of Indigenous people around the world, who have not recibe the colonization of colon, still having their ways of seing the things of their predessesors. The indigenous people are an important part of portion of the humanity, with their heritage, their ways of life, their stewardship of this planet, and their cosmological insights are an invaluable treasure house for us.

The word Indigenous has many meanings. In every region of the world, many different cultural groups live together and interact, but not all of these groups are considered indigenous to their particular geographic area. In fact, it is only in the face of a collective or shared sense of identity that the term indigenous peoples has been internationally recognized.

They live in climates ranging from Arctic cold to Amazon heat, and often claim a deep connection to their lands and natural environments. For many indigenous peoples, the natural world is a valued source of food, health, spirituality and identity. Land is both a critical resource that sustains life and a major cause of struggle and even death.

Each indegenous culture is diferent and unique.Many peoples express similar worldviews and a common indigenous identify, bassed in diferent histories, enviroments and creative spirits.
