Come and explore the forest...<\/h2><\/div>

Discover surprising ways of seeing the world through conversations with the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div>

What can we learn from the ways Brazil's Indigenous peoples understand nature, community, and the spiritual world?<\/strong> What do their relationships with rivers, forests, plants, and stars reveal about living well and caring for the forest?<\/p>\n

Forest Thinking<\/b> brings together conversations with researchers and Indigenous thinkers who have spent years learning from Indigenous communities across the Amazon. Together, they share stories, ideas, and discoveries that challenge familiar ways of thinking and open up new perspectives on the world around us.<\/p>\n

Many of these conversations are usually found only in academic books, specialist journals, or Indigenous testimonies that are to access. Our goal is to make these ideas available to everyone through thoughtful, engaging interviews.\n\nWe hope these conversations inspire curiosity, deepen understanding, and encourage a richer appreciation of the knowledge and cultures of the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201cFor the Krah\u00f4, the pur pej,<\/em> a field that is both beautiful and good, is, above all, a diverse one. And that diversity depends on these exchanges, on seeds circulating among different families.\"<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

\u201cIndigenous peoples are collectors of difference, while we have become a machine for generating uniformity at every level of society.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

\u201cLaughter is present in every aspect of Krah\u00f4 life. It has the power to create openness, foster encounters and connections, and enable a sharing of bodies.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

\u201cToday, there are no uncontacted peoples who remain isolated because they are unaware of the outside world. Isolated peoples avoid contact because they choose to. It is a deliberate rejection of engagement with wider society. These groups are often fragments of once larger people, survivors who have endured experiences of violence, displacement, and massacre.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>

\u201cI think that the archaeology of the Amazon is so different because human action here creates a kind of confusion between knowledge and nature. We struggle to separate what is natural from what is cultural.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>
