About
We are creating a space where Indigenous communities can share their songs, stories, and art with the world without losing their voice. We are not saving a culture. We are helping it stay alive and strong for future generations.
Impact
SUANI helps ensure that ancestral knowledge essential to humanity does not disappear. By strengthening its living transmission, it allows languages, art, and ways of understanding nature to continue guiding future generations.
Progress
For most of 20 years, I have built trusted relationships with communities in the region. That bond now allows them to share their voice and knowledge through SUANI, not as subjects of study, but as authors of their own story.
Team
Two decades of closeness and trust with communities support this project. Through ethical and shared accompaniment, SUANI moves forward without controlling the narrative, ensuring that voice, decisions, and benefits remain in their hands.

The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
