Indigenous Woman of the Amazon: Strong, Warrior, and Brave Woman
The Indigenous woman is a strong, warrior, and courageous woman filled with ancestral wisdom. She is responsible for preserving and transmitting the cultural heritage and traditions of her people.
In Colombia, there are 87 indigenous ethnic groups, 50.1% of whom are women, who struggle daily to keep their customs, families, and communities alive.
They are known for their craftsmanship, where each community has its own ancestral knowledge and cosmology, which they capture in every piece they make. Unique pieces with great cultural significance.
Indigenous women in the Colombian Amazon are responsible for caring for their children and maintaining the chagra, the place where they grow their food, and the community stoves, which are a symbolic space of fertility and a part of their traditional practices.
Indigenous women artisans express different knowledge, rituals, and customs in their crafts; it is a way of preserving and making known their ancestral culture.
Currently, in many regions of Latin America, indigenous women often face various obstacles and multiple difficulties in accessing the labor market, difficulties in accessing health and education services, and discrimination and abuse. Therefore, it is important to understand how valuable these women are to their communities and their communities.
Currently, there are programs in Colombia that support the Indigenous and Afro-Colombian population to contribute to their comprehensive development and recover their own traditions by providing access to food for self-consumption, promoting productive initiatives, and strengthening leadership and empowering communities.
