About  [Edit]

Tribes of the World is a non-profit Foundation that was formed to preserve and cultivate indigenous cultures around the world. The Aboriginal (Native to the Land) is a traditional people whose origin lies distinct in antiquity. Where they come from and how they came to be is still a matter to be learned. Indigenous spirituality is a haven for the mysterious, for their heritage lies recorded only through generations of Chiefs and Elders. All of what remain are a few precious eternal myths and stories written upon countless natural libraries of their religious history-on cave walls, rock faces and land forms among ravines and mountains, in the lives of animals and birds, trees and insects, fish and sea mammals. What Tribes of the World, intends to focus on is the preservation, and protection of native art, culture, sacred ceremonial sites, land and animals, in addition to stimulating cultural bonds between indigenous nations in order to create global awareness and appreciation . Our main focus is to help indigenous people build and maintain businesses for themselves in addition to ensuring future indigenous generations may understand, appreciate and enjoy their ancestral background.
