Who they are

The Baka are an indigenous people who inhabit the dense tropical forests of Central Africa, mainly in Cameroon. Known for their deep harmony with the forest and a remarkable tradition of polyphonic singing, they possess invaluable ancestral botanical knowledge. Although they face rapid changes around their lands, they continue to value community life and the traditional rhythms of the forest.
