Cultural diversity
Heirs of millenary traditions, Indigenous peoples convey the diversity of mankind. They form thousands of distinct cultures that have priceless views of the world and unique crafting skills.
• 370 million people
• More than 4000 different languages
• 90 countries
Environmental wisdom
If Indigenous peoples represent only 6% of the global population, they are the guardians of 80% of the world biodiversity. They gathered an essential environmental knowledge from their proximity to nature. A knowledge to value and preserve.
• Ancestral knowledge
• Resources efficiency
• Values of coexistence
Aesthetic visions
Indigenous peoples place importance in honoring traditions and their surrounding. Through time and history, indigenous communities developed unique aesthetic conceptions influenced by the availability of local resources.
• Unique know-how
• Enlarged canons of beauty
• Importance of symbolism
Indigenous peoples matter
There are a lot of topics we know are crucial and we do not do much about it. The endangered future of indigenous people is one of them. Today, many Indigenous peoples struggle for survival in a fight they cannot win alone. Most face global warming issues, pollution, basic human rights violations, economical greed & political threats. Thus, in this struggle, indigenous people organized. Supported by local and international life-saving NGOs, important achievements are made. However, it is through deeper respect and recognition of their rights and cultures that a decent future can be achieved.
In this fight, Ocre joins forces. To value and share these incredible cultures and to support the change.
