Who they are
The Aguaruna, also known as the Awajún, live in the tropical forests of the Marañón River basin and its tributaries in the Peruvian Amazon. Known for their cultural strength and historical independence, they keep their native language in active use and deeply value community life, organizing their villages around care for families and respect for the rainforest.
