Listening to Manari Ushigua (Flourishing Diversity)
Western influencers listen to Manari Ushigua, a political and ceremonial leader and healer from the Sápara people from the Ecuadorian Amazon rainforest.
This talk is part of a series of Listening Sessions organised by Flourishing Diversity: “To collectively understand how all societies can live in harmony with the earth, we must start listening to 5% of our population who currently protect 80% of global biodiversity – Indigenous communities. Our Listening Sessions highlight this urgent need by pairing Indigenous representatives with influential Western leaders who donate the power of their voice. We invite you to join them in quietly, respectfully, and intentionally listening to these lived experiences.”
